I was in my favorite gun shop today. I only went to get a box of bullets, but things happen. They had a sale on and I finally gave in to a long time desire for a small auto for carry during the hot, sticky, T-shirt and shorts summer weather we have here.
Being a 1911 fan, I got it's little brother, A Colt Mustang.
Here's the thing. Did the paperwork and the NICS background check was called in. The check was delayed due to a back up. I made the purchase at about 11:00 am. The check finally cleared at about 3:00pm and I picked up the gun.
The sales guy told me that some people who bought guns yesterday had to wait until today to get them because of the overload on the system. I know this is a major improvement over the old 15 day wait we used to have, but I was just curious if any others have run into this problem?
