I have purchased long guns in WA. Did not produce my concealed permit, just my driver's license.
I typically am approved within 10 seconds of the FFL pressing the submit button.
However, have been in the company of one in a transaction, his DL address was not current, resulting in a refusal by the FFL.
I don't know why you would need your concealed permit, since you are not doing a private party sale, and I'm surprised the Cabelas clerk even accepted it as ID.
It seems English is your second language, and thus I do not recall whether the clerk at Cabelas entered your information incorrectly, or entered your information from one ID vs. another.
Regardless, if you are unfortunate enough to have the same name as someone who is known to NCIS as a bad guy, then tough luck is the rule for the day.
Look on the bright side, you were denied the purchase of a gun. It's inconvenient, but nothing else happened to you.
A colleague of mine went home to visit his family in Toronto. He has the same name as a bad terrorist. He spent a month in a detention center while they sorted out the mistake.
