What do you mean by you get delayed?

Are you saying that you have to go through a waiting period in NICS and you can't leave with a gun that day?

Your best bet would be to PM viper98, he would probably be the best one to advise you of the process.

I get delayed every once in a while, probably about 1/2 the time. I've thought about getting the UPIN, just to make the process easier. But still haven't, there's nothing I want so badly that I have to have it right NOW, a little waiting doesn't bother me.

Seems like a drawn out process but here's a link;

Seems you have to go through the appeals process to get a upin.
Of course, to me, this is very close to a registration, in that they'll keep this as a file on you.

It is a process where you voluntarily provide personal information for them to keep on file, that way whatever reason is causing your delay is noted and eliminated....

If you don't want to wait and would like to take the firearm home with you when you purchase then it's a procedure you should consider......

If is a simpler route for all involved and less of a hassle for you......

any questions or if would like the necessary paperwork Pm me and i'll send it to you....

It's not a huge deal I get delayed but sometimes I would like to go farther to check out other gun stores and it sucks because if I buy one somewhere not so close I have to make
Two trips or get it shipped of course but either way it's gonna
Waste more time and money. Idk maybe ill just live with it...
