Has anyone experienced a recent change in the 3 day mandatory wait to pick up a handgun? I completed the paperwork for a pistol on Thursday and casually said "See you Monday" for the pickup. The FFL pulled out a spring '06 BATF flyer noting that the waiting period begins, not with the NICS phone call but at midnight of the day the call is made. Further, Sat, Sun and holidays do not count as part of the mandatory wait. The attached chart showed that paperwork on Thurs = possession on the following Wed. So the 3 day wait from Thus is now calculated as all Fri, Mon and Tues.
In the last 2 years all my purchases were timed at exactly 72 hours from the initial call in to NICS....anybody else encountered this?
