Wait Period

[baldopepper]

Well, got the proceed yesterday and picked up the handgun with no problem.  Six weeks seems like a long time to have to wait and I'm not sure it's all Sportsmans warehouse fault.  Guess I learned that it's wise to ask lots of questions before purchasing, mainly asking what the stores policy is regarding the wait period and what is their policy about informing the customer if "proceed" is not received in a timely basis. Staff was apologetic when I picked up the gun and I guess I'll go with the old "alls well that ends well" thing.  I'm kinda thinking I'd avoid them if I was in a hurry to get a gun I'd purchased though.

Get a CCP and that will prevent a delay usually. like it or not, firearms do not get into the hands of someone prohibited from owning as a result of their policy..

Explain that to the criminals....

Criminals don't care about any policy is what I meant...

understood..but they won't be getting a gun from Sportsmanswarehouse. I have seen handguns that were let go after 5 days, only to see a "denied" response 2 weeks later from LE! their untimeliness to process check allowed a weapon to an inelligible person..Sportsmans policy prevents that from happaning

I have my CPL and no criminal convictions. I just tried to buy a rifle from Sportsman's Warehouse yesterday and somehow got smacked with "delayed" on my check. I don't have a very common name and wonder what the problem could be. Every other long gun I've bought was almost instant. Six weeks seems like an awful long time. Has this happened to anyone else with a rifle?

Sounds like Sportsman's Warehouse needs to get out of the gun selling business and everybody should go else where. I am sure it is a store thing and liability reasons.
