I meant if you sell a firearm you have to, not that you have to allow private transfers. I guess maybe sneakerd was referring to private transfers too.

total bullshit. time to make all transfers even at dealers private party. eliminate the CBI completely.

I was specifically referring to the upcoming BGC requirement for private party sales. These obviously have to be done by an FFL. I believe that it's up to the FFL as to whether he/she is going to do the private-party sales BGCs.

You know, for charging a fee and calling it "Instacheck," I shouldn't have to wait 45 minutes for it to come back.

I don't see why a private party seller can't just log into the CBI website on their phone and do it themselves. I think they charge something like seven bucks on your credit card for instant results, no waiting, but it only covers Colorado convictions. And if the buyer has a CCW or valid military, police, fire, or EMS identification it seems obvious they're not a prohibited person.

This! You get what you pay for, right? Well we paid absolutely nothing before all this, and we got increasing wait times (first pistol from Bailey Guns back when he was still doing business back in '06 took about 15min -> 2hrs last pre-panic purchase last summer). Now that we have to pay for it, am I out of line for expecting the service to increase in quality and efficiency?

I waited exactly 1 week in January for an "InstaCheck"

Because that would not fulfill the requirements of the new law.

I was told yesterday if a person gets rejected, not denied, we aren't charged...don't know how true that is.

It was 1.5hrs a few days ago.

We were told a few days ago that the State was going to send us a retroactive bill [Rant1]
