Not an issue here in NC if you already have your CCW, - you just buy any gun and walk out with it.

They consider that it you’ve already passed the needed background checks to get your CCW, so you’re good to go.

Same way down here!

It's an insidious catch-22 that NY designed into the system.

The FEDs say the NICS is only good for 30 days, but if you don't get an answer after 3 you can proceed.

NY says you have to wait 30 days for the proceed.

But after you have waited the NY 30 days, then the Fed 30 days has expired and you need a new NICS.

Do Ffl’s here follow that bs 30 day wait ? How would nys know if a FLL got a call back after 3 days and not before ?

Just stopped by a LGS. He said he's not selling guns. He has dial up service and can't get through. He said only the ones that have tablets for processing the 4473 and NICS are getting through.

Inventory is extremely, extremely low at the shop my FiL works at in upper MI.

Like fewer than 5 handguns and 10 long guns low.

Just went to 2 gun shops to try to complete a private transfer. Masterclass in Monroe told me flat out told me NO because it will get placed on hold and they would have to hold it for 30 days. Costanza's in Monroe told me that he would attempt it but there is a 100 percent chance that it will be placed on hold. So me and my buyer left and will try again in 2 weeks.

On the plus side i see allot of good lawsuits from more then a few people due to all the BS hop jumping that's required.

Allot of libratards and those on the fence pulled their head from their asses and realized the government cant protect their toilet paper from being stolen.Nothing like a little life to put shit into perspective.

Imagine how many ARs would have been sold if Dick an like still stocked them. More $$ for the LGS

I guess if they shut down the "white market" for guns, that just leaves the black market.

If I was one of these panicky first time gun buyers and I was turned away at the gun store, I would probably start looking on the street corner.

That will of course drive demand for black market guns up at the same time that gun shops are sitting unmanned for weeks at a time.

What could go wrong.

I also wonder how high the price for black market guns has to get before cops start looking like juicy targets.

Unintended consequences.

Well, it's ok if they do.

What won't be ok, is for local or state municipalities to restrict sales due to the failure of the Federal Gov't to process the BGC.

That is all I have to say... And honestly, I couldn't give a shit because all those buying guns in panic are the same idiots buying all the TP... Fuck them!

Livin' in a Gangsta's Paradise (AKA New York)
Saw a video the other day from a California gun store where the owner (speaking to the camera) said that he had a TON of new gun owners coming in begging to buy guns and then acting SHOCKED because of California's mandatory 10-day waiting period. Apparently folks were yelling and screaming demanding their guns now. They were so brainwashed from the media that you could just walk in and out of a store with a gun they were shocked that the state has such restrictions. His response was basically he's working to get everyone the firearms and ammo that they need however, when this is all over, he would appreciate if they helped lobby to protect their rights and for less restrictions.

My guess there, here in NY and most other places, the formerly anti-gun libs who wanted tall guns banned now realized that civil unrest is possible and understandably so wanted to protect themselves. I guess all the moms demand crowd are now worried for their safety. Nice job Karen.

Well, depending on how this goes over the next few months, there could be sweeping change in the supreme court seats. And that, in turn, could lead to some massive changes on 2A policy.

I'm willing to bet they have Ruth in a bunker somewhere right now.

The first gun shop told me the same. He said that we were friends so... Still wanna be legit because this guy is new to guns. This will be his first. If anything happens with it, they’ll trace it to the factory, then to the gunshop then to me.

Well, you wouldn't be the first one if you followed the first gun shop's advice.
