My nics went in Monday still haven't heard back :|

My Saturday's checks were done today (Thursday).

my last nics check took 6 days. doesn't seem to be getting any better

Its not getting better... You might get the occasional lucky 3 day approval but that not the norm.

Bought on Saturday. Got the call yesterday, Thursday, late in the day.

My NICS went in Saturday morning and I still have not heard anything...

Aaaaaaaannddd they must be monitoring this website (and my impatience). Just got word from Bullseye Tactical that my NICS just came back. Good to go. Picking up my Vaquero in the morning.

Guess I'm waiting till tomorrow or Monday then :icon_neutral:

My NICs went in 2/12. It was reported to have been misplaced by the State, then faxed again and still waiting.

Unacceptable in my opinion!

Just put in this afternoon. The wait is on. The state is dragging it's ass, especially now that they won't accept the NICS as a call, just fax. The # per day is back to pre-December levels so the wait shouldn't be like this anymore.

Last week bought a shotgun in NJ and the check via fax took six days, two days ago bought a long gun in Pa and the Pics and Nics took all of five minutes. NJ does this because then can do this....... and get away with it. Mandatory waiting period without really enacting a mandatory waiting period......

Put in Tuesday night (Feb 26th) so it's been 4 full days. Lets's see what happens. First 4 months for permits, now this...

UPDATE:

 

I faxed in 3 on Monday the 25th of February and got the approvals the morning of Monday the 4th of March. Going by the approval numbers, they were done in the morning on Saturday the 2nd of March.

 

ETA: Monday the 4th of March at 12:30PM, I got 8 approvals for last Tuesday the 26th of February's checks. They paid OT for some employees to come in on Sunday the 3rd of March to do some of the checks.

 

ETA: Monday the 4th of March at 1:49PM, I got 6 more approvals for last Wednesday the 27th of February's checks. They were done this morning the 4th of March.

Mar 1st mine was faxed @6pm, fax went through so ill update this when i get the call.

Just got the call... was submitted last Monday 02/25/13

Thanks for the updates guys. This is a helpful thread to help gage waiting periods.

Purchased firearm on Wednesday 2/27, was expecting 3 days wait, thats how long it took last month. After reading this post, its clear wait times are worse. Damn...

Mine was faxed Tuesday 2/26. Wasn't back as of 5:00 on Monday, 3/4...

the nj bs is just ridiculous....i was in delaware today walked into a store looking for something else...walked past the gunrack..saw a 10/22 takedown...filled out the paperwork..he called and i paid and was out the door in under 30 mins from parking to pulling out....

Thanks for the update. Crossing my fingers for a call sometime later this week. My paperwork was submitted on Friday, Mar 1st.

Looks like we have a 7 day waiting period now...great

All this BS about needing tougher laws since it is too easy to walk into a NJ store and walk away with a (hand)gun!

I've been waiting for a week for a handgun NICS. Why pass a law requiring a waiting period when you can just throw an anchor out?

Just got a call 7:30 PM last night. 5 days not counting Sunday.

Just got the all clear phone call less than a minute ago. Almost a week... damn.

My nics just went in on Thursday 2/28 and still no word. I was told 4 days originally, but that's past.

Mine was faxed Tuesday 2/26. Wasn't back as of 5:00 on Monday, 3/4...

Got the call today, so it took 6 days.

 

I bought in October 2012 - took 10 minutes. In November, took 2 days. December was 3 days. January was 4 days, February/March was 6 days. I see a trend here...

My went in on the 28th, still waiting.

Put one in tonight, let the clock start.

UPDATE: Just got the call. Eight days. Screw NJ NICS. My next rifle purchases will all be in PA.
