I have purchased firearms on two occasions within the past nine months. Both times my paperwork was placed on "delay" by the computerized background check system. Yesterday, I was told by the sales gal that the Virginia State Police have been doing that in every case with people who have CCWs.
This makes no sense. The guy beside me who didn't have a CCW had his transaction pass thru in about 10 minutes. It took mine 30 minutes. Why do I receive increased scrutiny for already having a thorough background check (plus a security clearance, but that doesn't count, I'm sure)?
Is there another explanation for this? This just seems WRONG and it really burns my ass!
