I'm a furloughed (read "laid off" without a paycheck) Federal Government employee.
With some time on my hands and some "spare change" still jingling around in my pocket, thinking that this would be a good time to get to know it, with all of the free time on my hands.
I went this morning to purchase a Maverick 88 12 g with a 18.5 b for HD, on sale, at the same place where I picked up my Remington 870 Express a couple of months ago.
Back then, the electronic Form 4473 Green Light took all of 10 to 12 minutes. Today, I waited for an hour, before being informed that my 4473 has been "delayed" by NCIC. And that, with no promises, it might take "a week or two" to become unstuck.
Damn!
