8th day wait with no call

[Arcamm]

Breaking news.....

They think it revolves around THEM.

No kidding? Wow! You learn something new everyday.

hey you asked for it.

I just picked up a lower from an FFL and can tell you that he was so busy there is no way he had time to call anyone.

Like others have posted... Why don't you call him?

 

[thomfantomas]

so now they're saying must wait on the background check to be faxed back? but today marks the 9th day! i guess the need more thorough investigation on my clean rap sheet.i can legally take possession of my purchase yes? the owner was hesitant when i told him it's 8 days.

 

[swinokur]

That's kind of funny since all the hoopla last year about 7 day release without a ND received back from MSP. If the FFL has not gotten a disapproved back in 7 days, he can release the firearm. MSP admitted this during the backlog last year.

Who's the FFL?

IANAL

I had to wait an extra day b/c the 77r did not go through (unsure why). The FFL refaxed it the next day.

If you are in limbo are you 100% sure the 77r went through? Mostly I am under the impression ND are coming back next business day. You might be in limbo for no good reason - faxes do get lost.

If the FFL has proof the 77r went through, seems to me pre-Oct rules apply, 8th day release, even if the ND did not come back? If you have bought regulated firearms from this FFL before, they wont release, maybe time to find a new FFL?

It took me about that time. They call once they get your paperwork from state police I thought.7-10 days

I did my paperwork on sunday last week. Which is same as Monday Nd I got my phone call this past Wednesday afternoon.

i never had this issue before.but then again we are living in the FSAdecade2014.and for those who weren't condescending/disrespectful thanks for the feedback

Even though the paperwork comes back in 3 days, you have to wait the full 7 days to be legal.

These days, I see no reason to call over an ND, just go in 8 days later and pick up.

I've bought a lot of guns over the years...

I typically tried to buy from dealers somewhere near my home...

I have never received a phone call from a dealer saying my gun was ready for pick up...

I have received an e mail a time or two saying the my "transfer" had arrived & I needed to come in to do the paperwork...

So if I was in a rush to take delivery of my new gun, on the 8th day I'd simply go over to the dealer & pick it up...

I think it still works like that...

Similarly my dry cleaner doesn't call me to tell me my shirts are ready for pick up...

Some FFL's don't call because they don't want to end up notifying the spouse about the purchase.

I don't ask about her shoes or purses or clothes or etc etc etc. I ask about jewelry. Although I did tell her about a recent purchase and she didn't blink an eye.

 

[teratos]

busted?

Once or twice.

When people complete the 77r, I tell them the date they can come in to pick up. No need to call unless something goes wrong.
