A co-worker of mine informed me that he was recently delayed a purchase of a shotgun from Dick's SG. Of course this got my curiosity. As I understood it, if you weren't approved on the spot, then you're denied. If denied, aren't you entitled to an appeal form of some sort? Today he called the SP and local sheriffs office. The SP had nothing to say but reffered him to the sheriff, who said they can delay his purchase for up to two weeks. Does any of this sound right to you? He got no appeal form, and I suppose is just waiting to hear back from the store.
