Delay on rifle purchase

[Bob S]

I'm trying to buy an M1A. I've been on delay for 24 hrs. In the past I might have waited in the store about a 1/2 an hour or so. Is this some kind of current trend? Nothing in my life has changed since my last rifle purchase. I do have a common name.

Try different Store

Probably just a false hit. Maybe you will have to do the 3 day wait thing but I wouldn't worry.

They probably have to sort through all the Bob Smiths. It doesn't get much more common!

 

[Bob S]

I'll wait. I've bought ammo from them several times. I made up my mind about the walnut stock instead of the synthetic. I was looking at CMP or Orion 7 for a Garand. The store had one on the shelf, so I went for new instead of rebuilt. I won't take it personel. Thank's all for your input.

Post it up when you get it eh?

You'll be fine. The liberals are so afraid of trump now it's their turn to cause the system jam.

Worth the wait. The M1A is such a great rifle - soft shooting, elegant design, and tough. Love my walnut stock, it's a piece of history!

Bob I have been delay twice in the past both times right before or after a holiday weekend, just like this maybe short staffed?

Don't want to hijack a thread or anything, but I was denied back in November for God knows what. Nothing's changed, have a unrestricted pistol permit ,many other firearms . The problem is there's not a goddam fucking thing I can do about it but wait the year or whatever the hell it is. Ri.....goddam.....diculous. All I'm saying is, at least you're not me!

Stay where you are. They know who you are, what you've done, and where to find you. There's no use running... It won't be long now, you'll get a knock at the door....

If delays are common for you, you could get a UPIN.

 

[Eddie Gunks]

they no longer due "further reviews" they delay all of those now.

FBI says it frees them p to do more........

 

[Bob S]

Today is 48 hrs of delay, didn't call the gun store. They're doing their job, why be a nuisance? Friday will be day three. I'll wait to pick it up on Saturday. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas. I'll post a picture. Maybe take it at the range, when I zero the rifle. Other than the flash suppressor is their any tinkering with the gas block?

 

[Bananabandit]

Do you use your social? If not I would. I do. No hangups in my dozens of calls

 

[Bob S]

Yes, I put my social on the paperwork. I figure it's one way to help to distinguish myself from everyone else with my common surname. People have mentioned
several factors that may be at play. One thing I saw posted on another forum was the issue could be the M1A itself. It's NY legal. I'll wait for the call from the shop then go to range.

 

[redtail]

yep. SNAFU. Believe it changed after the dylan roof thing.

 

[Bob S]

72 hr delay. If the gun store wants to, they can release the gun to me tomorrow. I'll wait for their call.

M1A in NY cannot have a normal as made muzzle device. Springfield Amory does makes NYS compliant models which I have and there was no NICS issues getting it. Not saying this has anything to do with anything in FUAC Gestapo State. They make all the rules. We don't!

Yeah they do, or at least they exist. I seen em at the Buffalo Gun Center. They just weld or solder or whatever a thread cap on it. M1a is easy to make compliant.

The FBI doesn't know what kind of gun your getting just that it is a long gun. The FFL just tells them if it's a long gun or pistol.

 

[Bob S]

I have a quick minute now. More to follow. Picked up the gun yesterday, late morning. No time to get to the range. The gun was delivered from Accusport Corporation.
" non threaded bbl ". Looks to me like the threads were cut off, to make it NY legal. Have a great Memorial Day.

 

[BerettaGuy]

i am glad that things worked out for you after you voluntarily gave up the "right to remain silent" by filling out a 4473 and in doing so, you shared information with the third party (the ffl) so you gave up any expectation of privacy and because you did so, the Government that is not allowed to infringed on your right to keep and bear arms now has a record of those arms that you are not to be infringed on......just sayin.

Nothing in your life changed, but maybe some other Bob S somewhere just got busted.....

Good deal, looking forward to the reveal post!

Here's one: Springfield M1A LD STD 7.62 *NY* WAL

 

[Podmonkey]

Yeah, but I wanna see @Bob S's gun!

 

[GOYABEAN]

So the M1A needs to be circumcised

 

[Podmonkey]

A NY legal M1a looks normal at least. The loss of the muzzle device is not such a big deal if the full length barrel is used. Wouldn't wanna be near a NY compliant SOCOM though.

 

[Bob S]

I'm takeing pictures at the range Thursday, posting as soon as possible. For $1,775.00, I also got a Springfield Armory tactical case, cable lock and 10 round magazine. Same M1A Loaded Standard as @thewheels link. Has NM .308 on the barrel. I'm not sure if the rifle was circumcised by a surgeon or gunsmith.

 

[nortatoga]

The Doctor said it wouldn't be long now!!
