It is no big deal. It is just a mistake. File an appeal and send it in. If you don't hear anything in 15 days, the dealer can legally sell you the firearm. Chances are, if you went back and tried it again, you would check out.
Absolutely NOT TRUE. Denied is DENIED. "Delayed" is when the dealer can (if he wants to) sell you the weapon after 72 hours of no response from NICS.
I had this happen to me. Get on the TBI site and read for yourself. I don't appreciate being called a liar either. This is straight from them...
What is a Conditional Proceed?
If during the background check TICS locates a record with outstanding disqualifying charges or charges that are undeterminable as disqualifying, TICS will deny the transaction.
Upon an appeal of the denial, TICS will attempt to find disposition information on the charges in order to make a determination of eligibility to purchase a firearm. If TICS cannot obtain the information within the mandatory 15 day limit, the transaction will be marked as a Conditional Proceed. This means that the firearm dealer may lawfully, at his/her discretion, complete the transfer, although it in no way means that the dealer must complete the transfer. Should the dealer choose not to complete the transfer, your only appeal is to the FBI's NICS Appeals Services Unit. You may contact them at (304) 625-1903.
I previously tried to purchase a firearm and was denied. After I filed my appeal, the denial was overturned and I was allowed to get the firearm. Now I've tried to purchase another firearm and was denied again. What's going on?
If your previous denial was overturned, it became an approved transaction. Under existing state and federal law, TICS cannot retain any information about an approved transaction and so will not have any record about the overturn. Documentation submitted by the arresting agency or the clerk of court may have been sufficient for TICS to overturn the denial but not sufficient for TBI's Records and Identification Unit and/or the FBI's Criminal History Records Information Data Correction Unit to make permanent changes to their records. Submission of the proper forms by the arresting agency or clerk of court will result in your record being amended by the TBI and the FBI. Such documentation may be the R-84 Final Disposition Report Form or an official Order for Expunction. The above link for TBI's Records and Identification Unit will give you the information you need to clear up any problems with your criminal history record.
You need to check yourself before you get on here and bad mouth somebody. I don't post stuff on here unless I know it to be true. You might wanna do the same.
Also, I am done with site. I'm sick of people like W C running their stupid mouths and trying to start arguments on the internet of all things. Go ahead and remove me from the forum and close my account. And W C, whoever you are, you can go eating chocolate yourself buddy. Have a nice day.
