I always get delayed.
There used to be a number to call to get your purchase expedited?
Did a search and only came up with the main number on the east coast.
Any help is appreciated

Ahh, have no clue about that. I can walk in a store and walk out 15 minutes later. I don’t think GA has any laws on private sales, at least I hope not, lol.

They have a program that you can get "Pre-Vetted" for a fee, and avoid a lot of the BS. But, it's another layer of intrusion by the Feds.

You've probably got someone with a similar name causing the check to be delayed...unless you've been a bad boy in the past.

if your 4473 back ground check is being sent in at a high demand time it can cause a delay...or if you have a very popular name like - john smith. i always use my CCW permit as ID to buy firearms ...usually takes about 15 minutes..

you can get a UPIN by filling out a voluntary appeal form

https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/vaf-form-25.pdf/view

unfortunately they are just getting around to processing June 2021 now according to their web site

but if you always get delays it can speed it up after you get the upin

unfortunately that is not an option in every state , if the state legislature didn't allows the use of your CCL as the background check then it takes the regular nics

Oregon -- same way -- 2-3 weeks here. I believe that us liberal states are purposely slow to respond.

Dad got delayed once tod him to come back in 3 days. He went b to a different store and walked out with his new gun in 15 min. Is probably easier o buy them of the guy selling them out of his trunk on the corner. N I background check and cheaper the the retail store. You can't beat $75 fo a glock 9 dog.

Using my CCW permit takes 5 minutes and done.
Visiting with my buddy who owns the shop takes an hour and a cup of coffee.

Insta check was a bad idea. I did everything i could to oppose it when Bill Clinton and the NRA told everyone how wonderful it would be. Does anybody reading this think it has prevented any crimes?

Shall not be infringed. I am not going to get a CCW. Shall not be infringed. We keep getting more infringement and gun crime is still horribly high. So pay those NRA dues and sleep soundly. Gun control is making your gramma safer. You just cant tell it. The laws are there. How horrible crime would be if anybody that wanted a gun could buy one from his local crack dealer.

I was told that they discontinued that. Used to be that LE could go in after that was filed and it normally would come back right away as a go.

I bought a gun a few years back and the guy at the counter was a douche who was trying to weasel me and another friend off of my friend's land. I had even let the douche turkey hunt my land until he stabbed me in the back. Then I kicked him out. My return would not come back. A couple hour later, it still would not go through. A week later it was still held up. Then I got PO and went into Cabelas wearing my uniform. The guy at the counter was a retired highway bull who tried for years when I was a kid to nail me for something big, but all he could get me for was bald tires and seatbelts. Can't nail someone for something they aren't doing. It went through instantly. Turns out, douchebag was purposely preventing it from going through. If I could have proven it, I would have pressed to issue and went after him and Cabelas.

During the Obama panic buy, NJ's NICs was backed up 6 months.

Federal Law requires a federal NICS check. NJ Law requires the NJSP to do a NICS check. So we get two of the exact same check for every purchase.

This is KS state law. Supposed to be felony to make a citizen of KS comply with insta check when buying a firearm in KS. Sorry excuse for legislators and state attorney we have will not push it. No clue why they passed the 2nd ammendment protection act years ago then chose to ignore it.

Quote
Sec. 7. It is unlawful for any official, agent or employee of the
government of the United States, or employee of a corporation providing
services to the government of the United States to enforce or attempt to
enforce any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of
the United States upon a firearm, a firearm accessory, or ammunition that
is owned or manufactured commercially or privately in the state of Kansas
and that remains within the borders of Kansas. Violation of this section is a
severity level 10 nonperson felony.
