Not only that, but.....


“A NICS Delay
A Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) will receive the following instructions when a call is transferred from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) Contracted Call Center to the FBI Criminal Justice Information Services Division’s NICS Section for a transaction resulting in a delay:

“—NTN— is delayed while the NICS continues its research. If you do not receive a response from us, the Brady Law does not prohibit you from transferring the firearm on ___ day/date ___.”

The following table specifies the day after a delay response on which a firearm may be lawfully transferred under federal law if a final determination has not been received from the NICS (assuming there are no intervening state holidays or closures):”

That is pretty standard. When the Brady bill was passed, there would be some backlash if the NCIS would return a NO by mistake. So NCIS can either PROCEED, DENY, or DELAY. While Brady law does not forbid a transfer on a DELAY, many chain gun stores will not put themselves at risk by selling a firearm on a DELAY NCIS call. Places like Academy will only transfer a firearm if the check is completed fully. Still perfectly legal as federal law allows gun stores to deny transactions based off store or individual policy.
