I have heard in Colorado the backlog is over 10,000 transactions and folks are having to wait a week or more for the background checks to clear.

BTW,that also applied to the Denver Tanner gun show.Funny,it made the news folks would have to make arrangements for later pickup,but we still get propaganda about loopholes.

Colorado Gov Hickenlooper is pushing a $10.50 background check fee to cover the costs incurred by the state for the background checks.

One of those permanent solutions to a temporary problem.I've not seen many fees that did not remain permanent and increase.

Better we should be patient.Maybe tell the Gov "no thanks,I'll wait"
