It is about a NICS. I'm at about the 2 week mark since I submitted the info for a NICS at BassPro. I was under the impression that the "I" in NICS stood for "INSTANT" ok... so we blew a hole in that "understanding". There is absolutely no reason for a rejection so I'm trying to figure out what/why it's taking so long. Guy at BassPro said "well... they do have 30 days..." then it expires and then you get to do it all again... that last part was me guessing what happens after 30 days. LTC is "supposed" to fly this week but was also informed I can not use LTC to buy a gun I've already submitted a NICS on. I suppose it could be more difficult but at this point I'm challenged to figure out how.
