I'm now on day 71....and still counting. I have to "assume" that I have been pulled for review. My .380 has been in custody since 2/26. However, My AR15 was reviewed and I got my ND back in 54 days. Both were after I had applied for the DC status. There is no rhyme or reason for this nonsense. both of the applications had the same information (with the exception of the app. date, model and serial numbers). They are BOTH regulated firearms. I now have another in the mix from 3/9 that is due to hit the 60 day mark tomorrow.

Makes you want to scream.

Response from today's email:
Good afternoon, yes, your March 1, 2013 application has been placed on review but we haven't processed the other applications since we are currently processing March 9th & 10th at this time. Thanks for your patience.

Can I ask if both of these purchases were from the same FFL? There is a theory brewing around that would make sense to how this happened. What was your purchase date on the AR?

Picked up my .22 buckmark today at lunch. I bought it 2/23- so 74 days (71 if you figure I bought on a weekend and got the call yesterday).

I figured they wouldn't be real quick about it.

It takes 2 employees to check and double check and then a manager has to triple check and sign off on everything.

Not just " once in Boston“ but as a every day job?? This country makes me SICK lately, I fought for sorry ass people like Obama so he can play golf and send HIS precious kids to private school!?! As I fight for my job that has not had any raise in 5 years..while my medical insurance jumps through the roof, my taxes keep going up, and now you are going to tax me on the rain that falls on m y property?? are you insane?!? We need to step up people, step up you sorry ass people! We need to stand up and take our country BACK!!
sorry, but after working 70+ hours a week to take care of "Obama's" people I feel I have the right to VENT!

Whoah..... "Obamas" people!????? Which people are they? Democrats.... Liberals maybe? I hope that is what you meant.... Or perhaps American people. Yes, I like that better. I agree that times are hard and we pay taxes.... (Now they are taxing rain water) but let's not get crazy with the "people" bit. Just sayin. I'm a Vet, tax payer and hard worker too. Not sure what you were going for.

I don't believe you have to wait those 30 days. It's 30 days from the time of purchase, not when you picked it up. I could be wrong though, but that is how it was explained to me.

It's from the date you sign the paperwork to take possession of the firearm.

Ahh. Well, he should fill out his collector's form in a hurry then.

Yeah, both purchases from the same FFL.
Purchased the .380 on 2/26/13. Submitted paperwork same day.
Purchased the AR15 on 3/6/13. Submitted paperwork on same day.
Purchased .22 Target pistol on 3/9/13. Submitted paperwork same day.

No news on the .380 (71 days) or the .22 (60 days). But the AR15 was ND o 4/29/13 (54 days). Take the NICS away from MSP and let the FFL's do the work.....we'd get our guns a LOT Faster!

Is it just me or have they made a lot of progress through calendars days recently? Either the beginning of March was slow for sales or they are finally speeding up. Or I'm just overly optimistic.

Just got off the phone with Rose Brock. My 3/5 paper work is in review for sworn because juvi system was down and she said I have a common first name. WTH.

 

[Loader]

This is a sorry state.

A coworker just received his call. He purchased in February! Ten weeks, 10 weeks to process a single form. That's yet another failure in the inadequate systems our politicians have in place in this state. They charge us more in taxes and give us reduced services by a factor of ten!

They need to be held accountable. I'll be in line on Election Day.

Sounds like they're using anything for an excuse.
