MAY- the FFL is not bound to transferring the firearm after a Delayed response, it is up to the individual business. I have not seen it happen in years, I don't know of any shop owner who looks forward to getting their shit pushed in because they just had to transfer firearm to a "Delayed" individual.
The delays that we are seeing now ARE NOT "Delayed" NIC's responses, they are delays in processing the submissions. It could take 3 months to submit and process a BG and it has absolutely no bearing on the 3 day "Delayed" guidance to FFL's.
You have no choice but to hurry up and wait.
