    So if you buy a pistol and the run the check, but the FBI doesn't give a yes or no, you don't have to continue to wait forever. They can sell you the pistol after three days.

You know, I wonder if that policy is in place so that the FBI and ATF can't keep people's status in limbo through lack of action. Bureaucratic systems are the absolute pros when it comes to stall tactics.
