Re: buying new gun and leaving same day without a CHL
A call to NICS usually goes like this;BIG DADDY wrote:I have a friend who bought a gun at Bailey's House of Guns just off 288 & the beltway. He didn't have a CHL and left with the gun (pistol) the same day. In fact he said it took him longer to decide which one to buy than to get approved for purchase.. For the people on this board who are in the know, have we got so fast that background checks are made same day in minutes? Has the process for someone without a CHL speeded up that fast. Just curious to know...
You give your FFL number and Password. They ask how many names. They ask questions that are answered by the purchaser on the form.
Within a few seconds after answering all of the questions, they give you an answer;
1) proceed
2) Delayed, NICS will call back within 3 business days, if not, you can release gun on this date, "xx-xx-xxxx"
3) denied
4) this request will take further review, please hold for an examiner;
then another person gets on the line and asks a few more questions, then gives you an answer of either one thru three above. I have never had it take more than 3-5 minutes.
Just from my own, unscientific observation, it appears that about 98% of what we did was proceed, 1.5 % delayed, and .5% denied.
