Hey guys, first time posting here but I refernce this forum often. I've searched for discussions on this topic but cannot seem to find the answer I'm looking for.
I went to buy another gun the other day and was delayed...normal stuff. Well it came back two days later as denied...wth. So I submitted my prints to nics and started the appeal process. I know that process can take time so I went ahead and also submitted my prints to have a personal background check done and mailed to me.
I got a response from nics first, letting me know I was denied due to a warrant, they usually give no details initially. So I awaited my personal check. It came back the other day and flagged an out of state warrant for an unpaid traffic violation from 2011. Weird it never hit the system and was not put in when I got it back then, I checked with the clerk relentlessly and chalked it up as good luck that it never got turned it. Probably dumb on my part.
Anyway, to my question. The ticket and all fees have been taken care of. Anyone have an idea of how long it will take for nics to clear things up so I can purchase a firearm? I can't seem to get ahold of anyone with nics on any number I have, they're apparently not taking calls today, every day....
Thanks in advance.
