What's my problem?

Before you guys start in with all the fun, I do have a problem maybe someone can help with. It started when I bought a Model 700/30.06 when it looked like Obama was going to get elected the first time. Figured I needed a head start, before the gun grab started! They did the instant background check on me! Turned out it wasn’t so instant in my case! The dealer told me that there was a hold on my instant check. I asked Why? He said that it sometimes happens! 2 days later he called me and said come pick up my gun. I picked up the gun and asked, Why did this happen? He asked me if I had ever been in the Military and I told him, yes. He then asked what kind of Security Clearance, I had? I told him I had a, TS! I know, when they cleared me for it, I thought just what you guys are thinking and are going to have fun with! What the $uck kind of check is that! Do these guys know the sh$$ I did when I was a kid? Well I held that clearance for 18 years and as far as I’m concerned still do. Back to the story! When I didn’t get my gun that day, I did a People Check, and found another guy in the country with my exact same name. The only difference was the Middle name and SSN. Last week I bought a Savage Mod 64! Filled out all the paperwork and told the guy what happened the last time. He called in the info and the same thing! I’m on hold??? The store called me 2 days later and said come pick up my gun! What did or am I doing wrong? I can’t imagine my Military related TS would have anything to do with it. If anything you would think that would make me a little more trustworthy? Anyone have a similar thing happen to them and if so what did you do about it?

PS: 2008/2013 Same thing! So, it isn’t a one time thing! Is there someone I can call, to find out what’s up?

PPS: How do I find out what LIST I’m On???

Did you put your social on the form?

Sure! They ask for it! Everything was filled out correctly, or I wouldn’t have gotten it in 2 days!

I’m not on the (Do Not Fly List)! Why am I on the,(Check More for Gun List)??? I don’t even want to think about the (Flying with Gun List) I’ll be in the airport longer than Snowden!

Social Security is actually optional, but if you don’t put it on there, you run into more problems like that because you will get more false positive matches. If it makes you feel any better, I used to get stopped in Customs and get the full bag check every time I would come back into the states. After the 3rd or 4th time, a customs agent finally told me that the reason was that I had the same name and birth date as a “person of interest” to the authorities. Turns out that I am a foot taller than the other guy, so that helps. He told me that he cleared something up in the computer and it would take a couple of months to go into effect. I’ve gone out of the country a couple times since and have had no more issues.

skinneej: It’s not something I can’t live with! But I don’t want to and can’t understand, why I have to. What List am I on ??? How do I find out what list,I’m on??? I’m on some list? I want to know what the Hell I did to get on anyone’s list?

That’s the problem… If they told you, they would have to terminate you…

I bet Eric Holder is watching you right now…

Maybe you posting on the internet about DOD clearances that you have might not be the smartest idea… Just saying.

First off, clearances do not last forever. You are investigated and approved at the time for a period of years. If you no longer have a need, you no longer have the clearance. It costs good money to re-investigate you every few years. Without an absolute need for it, you will not keep it.

Depending on the clearance and requirements, you may or may not continue to hold it or it may be downgraded to a secret. Pretty much anyone can get a secret as long as they have no felonies, but DOD doesn’t hand out TS to just anybody.

That being said, the fact that you used to have one is irrelevant. The background check they do at the gun shop isn’t the same as obtaining a DOD clearance. If you want instant gratification, get a CWP.

Try buying a firearm with “James Smith” on the app. I talked with the dealer about possibility of it taking longer with such a common name and he told me that there was a way to get a preapproved ID number through SLED for people who have false positives. I never checked into it because mine went through immediately and there was no need.

But like others have said, the easiest thing to do is get your CWP and you’re covered.

The same thing happened to me a few years ago.

I had a secret clearance before I got out, and I have my honorable discharge hanging on my wall. I’ve never been arrested or accused of any crime.

After speaking with a FBI special agent, I found out that “someone with a similar name or likeness committed a crime punishable by two years in state prison or one year in federal prison”.

The special agent told me that I needed to go to my local police department and get fingerprinted and mail that to the FBI. I told her she already had my fingerprints, DNA, and dental records from when I was in the military, so why do I need to send new fingerprints? She just told me that was the process.

I think it’s a load of crap. Why should I bear the responsibility to prove their mistake wrong? I felt like I was being falsely accused of a crime and felt like I had lost my second amendment rights.

Anyway, I bought a used gun private party, and I got a better deal on the same hunting rifle I wanted with no hassle.

Farted; that’s exactly what I started to do! I came home and started to look in the classified ads and on line for a (**()ed .22, that the government was hanging me up on. I found one, but the store called before I got ahold of the guy selling it. It is almost like the government is forcing me to go outside the law to buy one.

Call 1-877-324-6427 and get yourself a NICS Number. Since I got my number I have NEVER had to wait more than the time for the guy to get off the phone. Before then I was always delayed and had to come back two to three days later to pick up my gun.
Not anymore.

Going to Church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

You are the offspring of 5 monkeys having But Secs with a retarded fish squirrel. CONGRADULATION!!!

Haz; Your the MAN! Will it cost me $$$$$??? Did you ever find out what caused the delay:question: That’s what piss’s me off!

Cost? only the amount the sheriff’s office charges you to do you finger printing on the card. Never found out what caused the delay. But since I did this 3 years ago I have not had one gun delayed.
