When buying a handgun, CCW permit is useless nowadays?

[joeroket]

5 day wait in WA without a permit,so no matter how long they have to respond.And I believe that 3 day thing is for permit holders.
So if I,a person with a CPL,buy a gun and get delayed,then in 3 days they should give me the gun.

Or do they do the nics after the 5 day wait? Been a few years.
Since the early 80s that I bought a gun without having a carry permit.

5 day wait by state law unless the local LEO gives a delay. Then the wait can be up to 30 days. No dealer I know will do the NICS unless they are actually delivering the pistol. The two I bought without a CPL I had to wait the 5 days then when I went to pick them up the dealer did the NICS check. So if an FFL gets a NICS delay and no work or a proceed from local LEO and is willing to do the transfer then the wait time would be no less than 8 business days.

[Good point. I have heard of many people being delayed because of other people with a similar name. /QUOTE]

that's BS stuff they are always using that similar name stuff.

The comment was made that someone with a CHL/CCW or whatever can conceal a rifle or whatever..... I am not sure if that is legal because my license is for a conceal HANDGUN not a conceal firearm.... so if anyone knows the laws please share. I know by law I can conceal my Draco AK pistol.... and a lot of people think that is a rifle... but it's not.

How about we try this a different way. How about you cite the ORS that one might violate or be charged under? Asking for the law that allows you to carry a concealed short barreled rifle is like asking for a law that allows you to eat birthday cake on Saturday (Happy Birthday to ME!).

The only hitch I've ever had was when I forgot to put my SSN on the 4473. It was about a 30 second delay - call transfered to another agent, "Approved".

I have never been delayed? That is one of the big reasons for a CPL, walk out the door minutes after you purchase the pistol. (I normally OC, but got my CPL just for the pistol purchase instant check) Before 1968 there wasn't even any paperwork.

Bought a handgun today. 15 minutes for the Federal Check and brought the gun home, with a concealed carry permit.

And they put all those little details into a database (Model, Caliber, Serial number). It's not just a background check you are getting. It's registration!

 

[Ron Eagle Elk]

Sprocket3,

Of course it's registration. How else they gonna keep track of those of us with firearms. After 23 years as a paratrooper and almost 7 years as a sniper, I'm sure I'm already on their radar.

It's been said, but I'm in W. WA and have bought 3 handguns in the last 6 mos. The 1st with no CCW and had to wait a few days. The 2nd two with a CCW and got them in about 20 mins.

You stole my bait!

Wrong. There is no manditory 5 day wait in WA without a CPL. It is a hold until notified, 5 day MAXIMUM. RCW 9.41.090(1)(b)

The sad thing about, Illinois, among many other things is that the BGC takes all of 2 minutes but thanks to legislation I can't leave with anything that same day. Mandatory "cooldown" periods of 24 hours for Long Guns and 72 hours for handguns.

I look forward to cash and carry, and well as being able to carry.

I go back in three days and either get my new pistol or my money back. I've had to go to small claims court to get all the money back as the dealer tried to keep the ten dollar fee for the background check. I won.

 

[Ron Eagle Elk]

Picked up an RIA 1911 yesterday. Quick phone call for the background check, paid the money and walked out the door with my new gun. That's with a concealed carry permit.

Does your dealer make you pay even though your delayed?

Oregon I have never been delayed by Washington I am delayed 9 out of 10 times but I never pay if delayed.

I figure I don't have the gun they don't get my money.

Basically my philosophy on this as well.

I've never been delayed but I've never paid before a background check was complete.

I've paid for OR background checks but that's it. When I pay for an item, it's mine at that point and I'll take it with me.

 

[B1911]

I've never waited more than 5 or maybe 10 minutes if the store was busy.

 

[PDXSparky]

I don't have CCW. The only time I've had any memorable wait time was because the phone line to OSP was busy. Once the call went thru, approval happened right away. Bought a stripped lower yesterday and computer approval took about 3-4 minutes.

 

[rusobr2]

i'v picked up 1 handgun & 2 long-guns in the last wk. here in OR, and it was run through on the internet.....the only thing they go by is your "ODL" (name, address, and odl #) took less then 5 min., and no ! i don't have my ccl yet, but then again, i'm (always going fishing)....

just info i have at the moment.........steven
PS....the nics check info is only held for 90 days, or less !!
