    Sorry all, I put my BGC for a new Sig... I hope to have her by next weekend. What I really don't understand here is where the hell are all these coming from continuously? It was at 10,000 on Sat, and today it's at 11,000? So people keep flooding in and submitting checks? They get to what? 1200-1400 per day, and it would seem that 12-1500 keep submitting every day. I'm assuming, since prior to this posting, my BGC was entered, so maybe I have 6 days or so to wait. I'm still not happy, I've never had to wait more than an hour for my BGC.

    Yah, I'm trying to figure that one out too. I wonder how many guns were bought online and are now waiting at the receiving FFL to clear the BGC.

    The concern here, and it's a fair one, is that something could happen to make you ineligible, e.g. a restraining order or mental health hold, but you could still have your physical permit in hand. Without the background check, the seller is relying on potentially outdated info.

    Either way, I sent the CBI a FB message (not sure if they read it, but it's the thought) expressing my gratitude and appreciation for all their hard work during this insane time.

    I'm in the same boat. Just being patient. Went to sportsmans for lunch and it looked like a Walmart Black Friday sale. So my guess is that if every place is that busy, they are overloaded and doing there best. :crazy:

    That's why it'd be EXTREMELY important to some how update this type info (on a timely basis) with the official who actually issued that persons CCW. That official would then have to make immediate contact with the CCW holder advising him/her that their permit is no longer valid and must be returned to the issuing Officer immediately. But, this still wouldn't prevent the CCW holder to make purchases in the mean time..... Don't know how it would/could work but surely other States must have some system to update this type info.
