So I see a firearm I wanted to buy online, it was CA approved gun and all that. Decided to have it delivered to one of their "Approved FFL's", I pay for it and get a call from them telling me to come down and to do paper work and that they have the handgun.
On the same day I go do the FSC first, and right afterwords I go to the gun store to do the paperwork. I pay their fee, the tax, and dros. Then 8 days into the 10th day I get a call from them saying that my DROS has been delayed, and that I have 30 days, and that I will probably receive a letter.
Now I know it's not my name, I have a unique name, however I even put down my SS#, which I later found out was a waste of time, but did it anyways. I don't have child support because I have no children, I have never been fingerprinted and handcuffed in my life. Both my DL and Registration are up to date. They said to do a live scan, but wouldn't that be a waste of another $50 since they only check for when and if you were finger printed right?
I guess I have no choice now. I asked the FFL if they release to undetermined and they said no, that they will need a live scan, and a letter from DOJ stating that I'm eligible to purchase it. Worse comes to worse I end up getting it refunded and losing out the restocking fee and just saving money to move out of this state. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also another question, shouldn't they have done the background check? Isn't that what I paid for? I don't get why the FFL suggested for me to do a live scan, aren't their tools at DOJ sufficient for that?
