    NICS or MSP?

    I heard NICS was back to normal, more or less. The MSP checks are what's taking forever.

    I think you're talking about MSP, which is delayed about 3-4 weeks. If its NICS... you may have a problem. NICS checks are instant or delayed for about 3 business days and expire after 30 days. I just bought a cash-and-carry rifle on Friday but got a delayed response, yesterday it came back approved.

    Either way you need to talk to your FFL and see whats going on.

    Yeah, nics normally max of 3 days but it is back to normal, even has added the backround check for NY ammo purchases :sad20:
    They are even rather fast right now since call volume is so slow (all the guns have been sold just about)
    Must be a msp thing, call ur ffl and see what they say

    I will be at three weeks tomorrow for the MSP. Can they essentially hold my firearm hostage at the FFL until whenever they decide to do the paperwork?
    If it's a long gun, the only person holding your gun hostage is the FFL.
