NICS checks

Featured Replies

I ha my stuff faxed in on 4/26 and still waiting!

You should contact your FFL. According to members that had NICS submitted on 4/26, they got their approvals by 5/11 - 5/13

Was told last night by my FFL that they haven't been receiving NICS approvals on Saturdays anymore.  Said they were currently running at 14 day returns.

I be happy with 14 days. I bought two guns last week and was told 17-21 days maybe up to 24 days. 

Started the NICS process today with Jeff of Wortendyke Arms. Great guy BTW. It's gonna be close - my permit expires on June 11th ... 17 working days from today, lol.....

Unless the SP misplace your form, you should hopefully be okay. Did you extend your permits?

I'm a victim of both the NJSP and  FFL screwups...First submission 3/17 lost by NJSP...FFL refaxed on 4/1..the assumed it went through when in reality it didn't...Refaxed second time on 4/30    NJSP finally sent response on 5/16....what a federal case this turned out to be..

14 days for total for my check. was told 19, so i'm pretty happy it only took 14. Just about 6 months total from the time I applied for my permits til I got to bring my 1911 home. big props to Al Bodnar from Weapons and Accessories for making my transaction smooth. Now just gotta decide what to get next.

12 days for my check went in 5/17 got called today 5/29 sucks I had to work today and could not pick it up but will be Thursday

12 days for one, 11 days for the other.

Anyone get a long gun at cabelas in Hamburg Pa recently? What's the NICs wait there? Probably worth the 2 1/2 hour drive to avoid the headache.

NICS in PA is normally 15-30 minutes.

Up to 17 days for me. My colleague at work bought his XDM last Thursday. Picked it up this Thursday, I don't get it. Whay are some 6 days and others 17? Rediculous!

Hey with all this wait time it really makes us appreciate and understand our 2nd amendment more than than the rest of the free states without this we wouldnt be as concerned or aware as the other states. Not saying that is good. But you cant say thats not true. From a 16 day nics check veteran.

I cant get anyone to tell me if it is lost or not. This sucks.  Now day 20. If I don't hear anything in the next few days, should I ask them to resubmit? At this rate all future long gun purchases will be in Pa.

FFL just called, NICS is in! Finally!  5/22 to 6/12

Submitted  on 6/14/2013 @ 4:30PM, received call from FFL 6/18/2013 @ 10AM


2 business days!


 


FFL told me Monday 6/18 started instant checks but decided to submit Friday anyway.  Either way glad as sh*t I didn't have to wait nearly as long as some of you guys. Time to go pick up my new pistol!

It took me more than 3 minutes only once - because PICS was completely down for almost 12 hours.

 

But my primary dealer comments that I always go right through. The only explanation is that PICS knows how awesome I am. Darn NSA.
