I am a Native Texan and Texas is pro-NRA. This past Sunday, i drove an hour and a half to buy my 10 year old a new 12 gauge for his birthday, as he has outgrown his 20 gauge (according to him). While I was there, my 12 year old wanted to use his own money he earned to buy Creedmoor 6.5. I have no criminal record, but after running the background check, the guy tells me, "They put a delay on your background check. You are the 6th or 7th of the day. We will call you when it clears." Tomorrow is Thursday, and I've heard nothing. I believe that because I was buying a rifle (or 2 guns) I will be blacklisted. This will be the new norm I am afraid.
