Hello all
So here's my situation. I went in to put my 1st handgun on layaway on the 1st of the month and started the 7 day wait. I payed off the rest on the 14th and inquired as to my wait period's status, thinking I'd given plenty of time since I'd had to wait for a payday. The clerk apologized and said that they hadn't heard back yet. Very disappointing. So I ask him when he thinks I should try back and tells me that I should almost certainly be able to take home on Tues(It was Fri).
So I try back on Weds the following week and get the same response of, "Still haven't heard back"! I try again the next day, Thursday(of this week), and they still hadn't heard anything! At this point the clerk says to call back in the morning and that he'd try to see what was holding it up this long. I do so and come to find out that the Lynnwood PD has put a hold of some sort on it!!! The only interactions I've had with them have all been non-criminal( got stopped and informed that my tail light was out).
Is this legal? It doesn't feel right and I'm getting really frustrated!
Now keep in mind the only thing that I know of that would be on my record would be a speeding ticket from like 5 years ago in CA! I have a totally clean record!
So I'm gonna call the Lynnwood PD tomorrow and see what the be-jebus is going on!
I'm a mellow and patient guy but I want my handgun!
Any info/input/advice would be appreciated! Thanks for letting me vent!
