    So i was expecting to see the normal "not disapproved" email at 0600 this morning on a 77R i submitted at the dealer last week (8/4). First time in lets just say more than a few successful transactions that hasn't hit the 7 day mark and always a 0600 email. ( I don't count the one from the server cluster FVck a few years ago. So I log in and check the app.... says still pending but has a NICS date of yesterday (8/10). I had picked up another 77R transfer a few weeks ago (yes I'm a Designated Collector) right on time and just had my HGP permit approved last week as well.

    Anyone else seeing delays on 77R's?

    yes, this is a thing.

    but 7th day release is also a thing, ask your FFL.

    My last one I got the e-mail on day 8. Dealer wouldn't let me pick up on day 7.

    yeah, unfortunately this is my first buy at this particular FFL because he had a certain something in stock that I'd been looking for . We'll see how the day goes. Can't hurt to ask.

    This is should be something to ask your FLL going forward before you purchase. 77rs will be delayed for a while, until MSP has cleared the HGP backlog.

    Yeah I used to every time. This time I got complacent
