    Sundays in and of themselves aren't necessarily bad, but I've heard less than flattering things about Cabelas wait though. Have bought elsewhere on a Sunday and never had to wait more than normal...say 20-30 minutes.

    It doesn't matter when the PICS instant check takes 19.5 hours.

    Go as early as possible. I've heard from a few FFLs lately that the earlier they do them, there's usually less of the ridiculous delays to come back.

    As already mentioned. Unless they changed their business practices, plan on spending the whole day there until the PIC check clears.

    Absolutely Cabelas is always slow regardless of day or time. Two hours min.

    They make the process take as long as possible to increase the possibility of you spending more money there.

    Always a good idea to go when it opens if possible.

    I've bought 3 from Cabelas, never on a Sunday. Their system sucks, average time was 3 hours. They were the only ones that had what I wanted which is why I went back for numbers 2 and 3.
