Got my first delay ever today. I have a conceal carry permit and have bought over 15 guns in the last few years. I was picking up a cheap shotgun at Wal-Mart and got a delay.

UPDATE: Academy came through in about 15 minutes. frick Walmart

Get the new CC and you don't even have to call anymore. Fill out the paperwork and walk out the door with your purchase

Did that already. The guy at academy said the Walmart person probably screwed something up

I like to supplement my Sig purchases with some absolute dog shite every so often.

In that case, you should've bought a Remington....

If you have the 5yr issued after the end of May of 2015 you can skip the NICS check in La. I think it is a dealers choice, I have gone to both some don't some do the NICS check, I go to the ones that don't to purchase my guns.

In MS if you have a firearms permit (CCL) then you are not subject to NCIS checks. They don't even make you fill the paperwork out. Just show the license and your good to go as long as it's still valid.

Then they are in violation of federal law and can have their license revoked. A Form 4473 must be filled out on every gun purchase from a dealer. The NCIS check is a separate issue.

Local BPS said the same thing, it took about 15 min for mine to clear. It has never taken more than about 5 min in the past.

Wal-Mart

Don't trust them for firearm purchases. I like them for buying tree stands
