Hello INGO,
It has been several years since I've purchased a firearm from a dealer where a background check has been needed. I believe my application / background check was delayed and I had to wait a couple days to pick up the gun. Anyways, here I am, several years later and making a purchase of two revolvers from a dealer that's about 2 hours away from my house. I'm really hoping I only have to make the drive once, but it really all depends on the background check. A couple questions if anyone willing to chime in:
1. What kinds of things ultimately result in a background check being delayed? I have no felonies, but do have a misdemeanor from my college days from drinking underage. I've heard time in military could play a role in being delayed, but is that true? I do have an IN lifetime carry permit.
2. Since I've been delayed before, am I on some kind of list and prone to always being delayed?
3. How long is the delay typically? I'm trying to plan out my week and want my new revolvers in hand ASAP.
Appreciate the help.
