[QUOTE=dogtown tom;6840982]Not always true.
A VAF/UPIN allow FBI NICS to keep a persons information open until that person requests it be closed. When the FBI runs a buyers NICS check, all information from "proceeds" are deleted at the end of that business day. Delays are held open until status changes to "proceed", then deleted. Denied transactions are kept open permanently. Remember, dealers in all states do not contact FBI NICS directly. Those nanny states may hold up the transfer for their own reason unrelated to FBI NICS. In the 10 years I did transfers I've never seen a UPIN # prevent a delay.

Well, reading over the comments since I last posted. I know I definitely do NOT need a lawyer. I'm more than familiar enough with the law to know that I don't need one. Long story short, my information wasn't correctly deleted from certain systems when my pardon went through. I was DENIED a firearm purchase a couple months ago. Through that, I did a firearm denial challenge and through that process my record was sent to state police records and the state police confirmed to the FBI that I received a full pardon and that I would be deleted from the FBI's database. When I went to purchase the gun again it was DELAYED, not denied. In fact, NICS told the FFL that if they didn't hear anything back by December 31st that I could go and pick up the gun. At this point, through ALL the conversation here, I'm feeling the best plan moving forward would just complete the VAF file and while that's happening get my CCDW in my state. From what I understand, the process of buying a handgun is much easier and faster with a CCDW.

I don't have a lit of which states function which way, and I don't think you have said what state you live in so you'll have to determine for yourself whether or not the permit will expedite the background check in your state.

I have a customer that’s a state police officer in VA…he has a UPIN number and it does no good he’s always delayed…interesting thing…he was stationed across the street from where we call into. One day while in uniform he had to deliver some paper work to them (NICS) and while there he asked the supervisor why he’s always delayed, guy said he had no idea, he was going back and forth with him and both had a good laugh that he was always delayed and a police officer. What’s all this getting too? I don’t think the UPIN well help you, at least in my experience.

Well just to clear everything up, my NICS background check was approved today so I guess in the future I’ll always be delayed but come back clear. Seems my firearm denial challenge worked and I’m good to go now.
