Maybe it would be a good idea for someone to come up with a "pre-approval" method. Similar to getting pre qualed for a home loan.

Really???   You know if your legal or not???  And if you really want the pre approval just get your cpl

Kind of what I was thinking.

If you're holding guns for appeals its going to be a long wait. I got denied from a case in 1994 that was dismissed. I have bought lots of guns and traveled to Alaska with them and 19 years later I have to prove to the fbi I'm innocent. Kind of crazy but what really  makes me made is there 3 months behind. Got denied one day after sandy Hook and at that time they were working on appeals from September  :yike:

Not quite sure how it could work.  I understand the restocking fee for someone knowingly wasting time when they know they wont get approved.  I just thought it might be a "process starter" for lack of better terms. 
I think most people know if they are legal or not.
Maybe the stores should have a "Permit" line and a "Yeah, I think I'm okay" line and then a "Looky loo" line :dunno:
Just a thought
It is what you meant it to be...

I think the easy fix is to require a down payment for a special order... the same amount as the restocking fee.  :twocents:

Mike W  --

For the record, its not always good policy to slam a business about their practices, pricing, and donations then find out you were inaccurate in previous statements and then see if they would be interested in donating a gun to the next banquet all in the same thread.

We strongly support RMEF (4 Banquets),  Ducks Unlimited (4 Banquets), Pheasants Forever (2 Banquets), CCA (2 Banquets), Friends of the NRA (3 Banquets) along with several others.  Our donation total exceeded my personal salary.

All of our donations are based on the support we get from the community. 

Just something for you to keep in mind, as will I.

3.  This is the big one which we have had to enact over the last 3 months.  Due to unprecedented amount of people tying to purchase guns who KNOWINGLY cannot pass a background check.  Basically, if you come into our store, waste our time purchasing a gun, getting all the details about it, run your background check and get denied because of something you in the past that caused you the right to currently own a firearm, we are going to ding you. 

My staff has been instructed to help ANYONE with the denial process including Appeals and instructions to have your firearms rights restored.  If you choose to appeal or seek restoration of rights, we will not charge you a restocking fee, but will continue to hold the firearm until the process is completed.  If you are not willing to seek to get your rights restored or are not willing appeal because you "Know what they will say", then your going to get hit with the fee.    Trying to purchase a firearm when you knowingly cant and lying on a 4473 background check is a federal offense.  In this currently charged political environment, we are in desperate need of more LEGAL gun owners.  The last thing we need is someone trying to skirt the law to purchase a gun.  It reflects poorly on all legal gun owners and gives leverage to those who would like to take our 2nd Amendment rights away.

These people should do time in addition to your restocking fee.  Do you report them to LE?

This is kind of a funny suggestion. "Really sir, I have a felony on my record? I had no idea!"  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

It sounds to me like the OP owes KelseyH an apology, regardless of the amount of their donation to anything. The thread was a bash that turned out to be fueled by inaccurate info. Splitshot, you need to apologize. I don't care if it's because your friend didn't tell you the whole truth or not. You need to apologize. If your friend set you up with incomplete info, maybe he needs to apologize to you, too. That's between you and him.

Kelsey, thank you for supporting the organizations you do and through that, the conservation of our wildlife resources. You're an example of a good and ethical businessperson, as far as I can tell. :tup:

This happens more often than you would think--The record gets expunged, and is forwarded to the local authorities, but the Feds never are made aware of it, so it pops up in the NICS check.  One hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing, so to speak.
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"

Heredoggy, you make a valid point. But, a pre-approval would do exactly what that the background check doesn't? All we need is another hoop to jump through to get guns. Oh yeah, no we don't.

We have found that some of our denials are based on the lack of communication between the state and local authorities which is why we try and help get the appeals process rolling.  If we can get the things cleared up between local authorities and NICS, it makes it a whole bunch for the rest of us.  Anyone that has had their rights re-instated would be well served to apply for a UPIN (Unique Personal Identification Number) which will confirm your rights reinstatement as well as prevent being delayed on the NICS check.
