Well I got delayed for the first time today. Day off and I just wanted a shotgun. Guy said they could be busy or the fact I was born overseas (Clark afb) either way I am not a very patient person hope they call back today!


Just got the call approved all I needed was some Internet whining!

I've actually never experienced this delay syndrome you guys talk about.
Perhaps it's all those years working fror the circus in SA.
I don't know, but I thought the PIN thing would fix that.
It's gotta be the record number of purchases this year.

Don't worry Senator Coburn is working on expanded and improved background checks that will speed up the process. Just like Obamacare is going to help.

I always get delayed.

Me too. Well, 75% of the time. And I've never gotten a call-back. Makes it nearly impossible for me to buy a gun from brick and mortars like Academy that require a call-back, or at a gun show that only lasts 2 days. It's cost me several real bargains.

I had the same experience today at Henry's in Yukon. It's all computerized now and Johnny tried to call only to learn they are not accepting phone calls at this time. It seems really fishy to me I smell a rat. I've bought several guns in there recently all with no trouble. I'm half pissed and embarrassed all at the same time. If the FBI isn't taking weekend calls it sure sounds like an attempt to drive the GUNSHOW business out of well....... Business rant off.

It works. My one and only attempt at buying at a gunshow had a delay. I ended up not buying the gun because the dealer was from out of town.
