Can the FFL purchase the firearm from the disapproved buyer? Like if its a HOT selling IWI TAVOR? (and it made it into MD?)

Constitutional Firearms has made a decision to force the issue with respect to MSP having 7 days to make a negative finding or approval is assumed. I too got a fast track approval from them while my wife was still waiting for approval from another shop for a purchase made weeks before mine. I don 't know if they do it for everyone or just for people who have a positive track record with them.

Agree that Rose Brock is very easy to work with. Definitely be nice to her or you could spoil it for the rest of us!

I asked the MSP why the long delay last week. The story I got was that they are receiving 750-900 applications a day and they are working as fast as they can, but they are serious about keeping guns out of the hands of criminals.

I asked how many applications out of those thousands have been disapproved. The response was "several." I pushed my luck and asked how many of those were criminals. The response was a deafening silence.

Did you ask them why they didn't think this may be the result, back in January, when the turd was put in the bowl?

Come on! It's been almost 6 months of this. I have seen whole projects stood up in less time, fully staffed with 100 people, hardware in production...

I bought a G36 on 2/23 and didn't get it until 5/6. 10 1/2 weeks.

Not to deflect your point, but actually, the IMI TAVOR is NOT REGULATED- cash and carry- pass the call in check, pay and walk out with it. I actually saw one at 2A sales - it was gone when I went back for something else ,but then they had an FN SCAR- also cash and.
carry- I was tempted.
Unfortunately after 1 Oct, the TAVOR will be banned because overall length is less than 29 inches...unless some can be brought in with pinned muzzle brakes- or pinned flash suppressors. The SCAR will have to either sport a muzzle brake instead of the suppressor, or loose the folding feature of the stock to stay off the banned list and remain unregulated.

Not Regulated - but don't you still have to pass a background check for it?

It is listed in the owner's manual as a compensater. That would make it a muzzle brake.

Speaking as a 17S owner, pull the trigger. Then upgrade the trigger to a Geissele and pull it faster

Not Regulated - but don't you still have to pass a background check for it?

Cash and carry means that you walk in, pay cash, they (your FFL) call FBI/NICS office directly and on approval at the end of the phone call, you carry out your rifle. There are probably more unregulated long-guns that regulated, but all handguns are regulated.

I've done this with several while I wait for my friggin handguns. PS90, FS2000, SCAR17s, etc. Apparently I'm an FN whore as the last handgun I submitted was the newly rostered FNX-45...

10 weeks waiting on a "Not Denied" on 10 stripped lowers. I'm a designated collector and a law abiding citizen.....WTF?

Day 66 for me...

And its only going to get worse. MSI's legal action on this can't come soon enough.

 

[Right2Carry]

Just purchased an upper and lower combo. Day 1.

 

[ED O]

purchased a Sig P250SC 9mm on 4/13 at MSAR, so I guess I have another month or two before I am picking it up

 

[iH8DemLibz]

I just had (2) Springfield XD9's (9101's) shipped to Bass Pro from a store in PA.

One will be for me and one will be a birthday present for my son.

I don't even want to start the paperwork because I know the wait is going SUCK.

My last pick-up was 39 days back in January. What is it now? 75-80 days?

In the not-so distant future, someone will be starting a "3 month wait and counting" thread.

 

[Arcamm]

My wifes purchase hit 70 days yesterday.

 

[Megiddo]

Got my "not disapproved" back yesterday for a purchase placed on March 8th.

Only a government agency would call it "Not Disapproved"... what happened to "Approved".

I'm just a newbie... my paperwork went in May 7th.
