has anyone else here been delayed buying a firearm???

Yes I was with a buddy when he was delayed buying a firearm.

He wanted a Glock 17 and it took them several weeks to get it for him instead of the 10 days. Nothing to do with supply this was purchased before the election.

Supply wise shops are running out fast of the more "Tactical" firearms.

went to a gun show here in town this morning and tried to buy a Bushmaster AR 5.56 and was told by the dealer that my background check had been delayed for further investigation.

I have no criminal record or anything in my past that would stop me from buying another gun. has this happened to anyone else lately?

I need to get a concealed carry permit too. have been meaning to do it for years but can't seem to find the time

a criminal investigator finds
a weapon at the scene of a homicide.

out who owns that firearm.

comes from ???

That pisses me off, I'm not a Vet but those guys and gals know how to handle a firearm.

You've been flagged as someone who loves freedom and the constitution. And black-listed, for having a distaste fro tyranny, and power-drunken scum.

So you have been deemed a criminal.

OP here is the real answer to your question. Most people get an automatic flag after their fifth firearm or so. Doesn't matter what kind it is. It's not because of your Facebook posts or viewership here. It's just how the system works. Normally these holds are no longer than 5 days and it is just designed to give the ATF fuckers a chance to review your file. I got my hold on a little tiny 22 magnum pocket gun of all things and was the final straw that convinced me to get a CCW. This requires an extensive background check and fingerprint but at least prevents any future "mommy can I please have a gun" requests.

If you are the tin foil hat kind of guy you can always purchase used guns via person to person sales which in most free states do not require any paperwork. Don't stress out too much, it's just how the system works.

Don't worry. If you never committed a felony or have a mental record it will pass.

Just wait a bit. They'll have to give you a legitimate reason to refuse you on background check, otherwise they will be violating your 2nd Amendment Rights, at which point I'd find a lawyer.

I just bought a Remington 700 a couple days ago. No approval problems. Of course, the guy didn't ask my name and I didn't ask his. He asked me if there was any reason he couldn't sell me the gun. I said no. I asked if it was stolen, he said no. I handed him the money. He handed me the gun.

Of course, there are only 33 states you can do that in. 17 require background checks.

Establish residency in a good state. Buy guns all you want.

The fallacy of "they are going to come and get your guns" just makes me laugh! How are they going to find them? In my state they won't know because, while I have over 50 guns, there are only about 5 of them that I have had to hand over my "Paperz Pleez..."
