MSP Wait Times - 60+ Days

[steveh326]

What percentage of applicants are getting reviewed? It seems like a lot of people here do get a review though. I am 3/12 - I should call or email, but will give it a few more days...

I am 3/11 and in review. to the best of my knowledge I have never gone to review before, but perhaps I did and it was just resolved in the normal 7 day window, I dunno. Mrs. Brock told me that since there were so many non-sworn officers helping with the backlog of paperwork, if one database of the infamous 17 is down that could kick it over to review, so maybe that's what is happening with so many in review. still sucks big time tho.

I am a programmer by trade, I am sure anyone could write an app for MSP in a couple of hours that would automate the initial check for them, but that just makes WAY too much sense.

I don't even know what the wife's wait status is. She purchased an SR45 for me some time ago, and Dan @ GC said the expected wait time is 45~60 days. I'll have to get with her to check on it. SOOO glad I'm having my long guns done as HBAR's.

I too am a programmer and with the two of us, we could kick it out in no time flat.

(And just imagine the "easter eggs" would could put in it? )

That said, my Glock 19 Gen 4 was purchased 4/13. I'm at 32 days...

Third programmer here. With the 3 of us we can do it in even less time.

I feel like quoting the scene in "Hackers" when they are talking about how fast they hack into some machine and everyone keeps saying "with me, we can do it in X minutes!"

Database admin here. I can aggregate all 17 databases and have it feed to the NICs for them. Then they would have a one stop shop for everything.

73 days now....been in review for at least 10 days. Tired of calling, tired of waiting, just want my gun.

I am also a programmer; I will create a gui interface using visual basic.

But then you'd be going against the state's policy of obfuscation & delay....

Got my call today at 69 days. 3/8/2013 to 5/15/2013. I'll be dropping by to pick it up tomorrow.

Keep calling. Be friendly and respectful, but be sure they know that this isn't an acceptable situation.

Got mine today... March 13 - May 15 63 days. Finally...

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Be wary of MSP streamlining this process. Just change

$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM REGISTERED_FIREARMS WHERE SERIAL_NUMBER='$SERIAL_NUMBER'");

to

$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM REGISTERED_FIREARMS WHERE SSN='$SSN'");

and hello police state.

They already know and track that. May as well have the machine work for us for a change.

You call your kid "Little Bobby Tables" don't you?

Me too, 3/10. This is taking forever.

 

[pwoolford]

...and to think, 8 days used to feel like forever!

I seriously doubt their databases infoobjects are that well organized.

VB? I thought you said you were a programmer.
