You know it.

I was with my wife the time before (the previous weekend) when she filled out the initial transfer/NICS paperwork as well (standing right next to her). I think what threw them off was the fact that I answered his question when he asked what was being picked up.. i said "we are picking up a maverick 88 shotgun".. (technically, "we" were both there).. the use of the pronoun "we" was what drove it I think.. I didnt think that would cause a red flag, but apparently it did for some reason.. maybe it was just the fact that I answered him instead of my wife answering him.. the guy admitted to me he was not in a good mood that day, and we decided (SS and myself, I called them on Sunday) it was best for them to ship it back to the seller (who has already been contacted and is initiating the return with them).. they were fine with that..

 

as remixer said, we (there's that damn word again, "we") were only there to pick it up and pay them... honestly, if i would have known that the use of the word "we" or "our" was going to cause such an issue, I would have kept my arse in the car.. as i said before, learning experience apparently...

Just take your business elsewhere. I have heard nothing but complaints about them as of late. There are more than enough ffls that would be happy to do business with you. It's a shame that some ffls even make it difficult on legal gun owners

And this case, ladies and gentlemen, is a perfect illustration that the oligarchs have us exactly where they want us; they are able to stop, through intimidation, the transaction of legal products. One wrong word we are suspect to conspire to commit a crime.

No fault to the op, but as a society I think the we collectively have lost our balls.

Wow, learning something new every day.

 

IMO heavy snow and crappy mood are biggest factors in this story.

Just a quick update. After almost 2 months and multiple problems (disallowing the transfer and refusing to return ship to retailer), I finally have this shotgun. Big ups for Steve (Monmouth Arms) who took this in for me and allowed me to complete the transfer!

YOU have it or your wife has it?..

 

 

They are married. They both have it.

Whole situation blows. Pissing me off reading this since SS is my local FFL and shop.Transferred two AR lowers through them in the past. And purchased handgun from them. Rather use them over the other shop around corner. But still might end up punching someone in head if this was me or throwing something through showcase..
