Has anyone ever had a delay when purchasing a firearm. If so, how long before its cleared to make the purchase? I'm lookin at a mossberg flex 500
 
Mine got delayed one day. The weekend fell in the middle of the check. Tuesday morning, I picked up my Makarov .380. This was like 20 years ago.
 
Could take a few days. Might not even be a big deal as long as nothin' is on your record that would prohibit you from da purchase.
 
probably found some warrant on you, don't be surprised to find the cops at your front door in the morning

Complete transaction took 45 minutes and fifteen minutes after the purchase I was in the shooting range testing my new purchase at the same place. Got in my car strapped 90 minutes after I walked in the gun shop, with my 2 year renewed CCW in pocket and rollin. Somethings wrong playa, and if you've done nothing wrong, there's no reason why you shouldn't have been able to do the same. :cool:

That's why I'm shaking my head, I have no criminal record! Maybe that the way the system works!!
 
I used to get delays all the time before I got my CCL. It was because I have a very common name. I was even completely denied once and had to appeal it. Once I got my CCL, I pretty much walk in and out with a firearm in 15 minutes.
 
Never had a delay before or after my Concealed Handgun Permit. Walk in to Academy or my local gun shop, then 10 to 15 minutes later......BAM got my new piece. :yes::D:yes::yes:
 
What's the procedure to start getting a handgun in N.Y.?

I knew it was tough so I looked it up. It is a LOT harder to get permission to purchase a gun in NY than it was for me to get my carry permit. I don't even know if its possible to get a carry permit in NY.

The dollars are ridiculous! I think I paid $10 for my carry permit and $5 per purchase for the background check. NY wants $434.00 just for a permit to purchase!

Different states have different laws. Some have waiting periods, but most don't. And usually thats only for AR and handguns. It really depends on where you live. But in most states there isn't any wait on shotguns. So there should be no issue for you.



Heres a pic of an AR I picked up a few weeks ago. 6.8 SPC Remington. Took 15 minutes.

how da fuck you plan on doing that???? new jersey has some of the strictest gun laws in the country and to my knowledge you can't just wonder over to pa to pick something up and return it to your home.

hell if somebody break into your crib in NJ and you lady shoots them with a gun registered in your name even though self defense she will still be charged
 
How you get a delay on your background check? If you don't have a CHL its either a yes or no over the phone with the FBI. No checks on me I got my CHL.
