Time from Submittal of 4473.
well yeah I get that part ..
so at the end of the 3 working days they just have to hand you the gun right ?
will they run the 4473 later or do they have to throw them out ?
if they do run them after and a prohibited person got a gun will they go knocking on doors to arrest em ?
I'm sure some of this is unknown because I don't think this has ever happened before ....
No...it's from the time the FFL receives a "Delayed" response from NICS. Once that happens, the 3 day clock starts running on the following day.

Q: What steps must be followed by an FFL prior to transferring a firearm subject to the requirements of the Brady law? The following steps must be followed prior to transferring a firearm:
- The licensee must have the transferee complete and sign ATF Form 4473, Firearms Transaction Record.
- The licensee must verify the identity of the transferee through a government-issued photo identification.
- The licensee must contact NICS through either the FBI or a State point of contact (POC). The licensee initially will get either a “proceed” or “delayed” response from NICS. If the licensee gets a “proceed” response, the firearm may be transferred if there is no additional State waiting period. If the licensee gets a “delayed response” it indicates the transaction is in “open” status and that more research is required prior to a NICS “proceed” or “denied” response. If the licensee gets a “delayed” response and there is no additional response from the FBI or POC, the licensee may transfer the firearm after 3 business days have elapsed. Of course, the licensee must still comply with any waiting period requirements under State law. FFLs contacting the FBI directly will receive information from the FBI indicating when the 3 business days time period elapses on “delayed” transactions.
wow, that is insane. the more these idiots push for gun control, the more guns that end up in the hands of all of us crazy people.....well they think we are crazy, but we are merely standard citizens who simply value our rights.
Do you think any of the Pollytickians are paying attention?
The message this sends is damn compelling.
