Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
No one seems to have said this yet, but you are allowed and encouraged to ask "why" you were denied. It it your record and your right to know... oh wait, I said "rights"... never mind. hehe.
I was recently placed on a "Hold sale" by CBI, for a juvenile arrest (criminal mischief) that was expunged by Jeffco in 1983. I had to get Jeffco to contact CBI to get this fixed. Odd, since I have been through 2 FBI background checks related to CCW permits, and it had never happened before.
the denial can be something simple and un-intended... a friend was denied purchasing a gun a while back, and couldn't figure out why - she had just been given her CCW permit from jefferson county. ?? Turns out a car registered in her name for her daughter to drive had gotten lots of parking tickets by the daughter and failed to pay them. So after cleaning up that minor mess, she was allowed to purchase guns again...
so you just have to ask them "Why" through the proper procedures...
Fucking stupid Colorado and their CBI checks. It's bullshit, that they can deny you and not give a reason why, they leave it up to you to investigate. If Colorado would use the federal NICS system, like they damn well should be, it is up to the federal system to provide a reason within 3 days of your denial, and if they cant, by law the sale must be alowed to proceed.
They really need to get rid of that horse shit. All over some garbage that happened more than 10 years ago.
I spent my Obama Stimulus money on a GUN!
Our denials were reversed last fridaySo far so good, case closed. Thank you for everybody !
Basic reason was: in our case, FFL should have called to CBI, instead of trying to do BG check in the internet. When it was denied, official appeal process just took some time. I think we both are little more clever now.
STI Matchmaster now tuned for matches, single stack still under work... What you get when you build 1911 with all major parts from different brands (STI frame, Caspian slide, Kart barrel) ? Lots of filing and measuring, filing and measuring...
Any info about who could have a good (Lothar Walther, Krieger, Shilen...) 18"-20" AR-15 bolt-on stainless match barrel with rifle gas system, .223 Rem. chamber and something like DCM or hbar profile in stock, would help starting my AR-15... Just getting answers "perhaps you could get it in April or May" (Krieger).
CongratsNow go buy some more guns,
just to teach them a lesson.
