Quoted: PSA will not release a firearm unless they receive a “go ahead” from background check. I’m on day 30 of waiting and will have to restart the approval process, so I decided I’m going to have them transferred to a family owned place that will release them on day 3 to avoid that happening again. Do they understand that is illegal.... |

They are now saying that company policy prohibits me having any option, but submitting another background. I’m currently waiting on a manager to come to counter.
This is the store in Summerville |

Jamin or Josiah might could explain the policy and/or help you out. |

The manager in store was able to help me out and make the necessary calls to solve the problem. Everyone in store was cool and considerate of my issue and I will continue to shop there. I just won’t send them any more transfers.
Also, they are no longer doing ANY store to store transfers. So if you buy a firearm from them, you will be subject to same company policy. So keep that in mind. Again, I’m very happy with the help I received in store and I’m not slamming the employees for doing their job, I just disagree with the policy. I just wanted to make people aware of this because I was not. PSA is also covering shipping cost of sending items to the next store. So while their policy may suck, they’ve got some good people there. |

I took it that he was thinking of getting it sent to a family member owned FFL, then transferred to him. If so, that is not a straw purchase. |

Someone at PSA told me that they still require the fed check, even if you have a cwp.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Someone at PSA told me that they still require the fed check, even if you have a cwp. this happened to me at the Greenville store, I have my CWP and even after filling out the 4473 on their notepad thing... I asked what was taking so long and the guy behind the counter said they were running my background check through NICS ??? I said but I have a SC CWP , usually fill out paper work they take a copy of license and CWP and I am on my way... he said nope, store policy... that was last year and the last firearm I bought there. |

I like PSA, but it sounds like they are going the Cabelas / Adventure Outdoors model of:
Cover Your Ass Once your company gets national attention, the Moms Demanding Hard Cock and the Bloomberg Brigade come after you to find the smallest error to destroy you with. Sad but true. and if my CWP isn't good enough, then I won't buy firearms from them any more. I am just stating my choice and not advocating what others should do. |

As with multiple purchases my cwp was used each time. |

If you are SC resident and have a valid CWP with a current address that matches your drivers license, no PSA is supposed to be doing a NICS check on top of that. The only exception to this is if your CWP address does not match your drivers license. If anyone has had a store do a NICS check while being a SC resident with a valid CWP with an address that matches your drivers license contact me [email protected]

It's my understanding that if you change addresses that you have a very short time period to report this to SLED regulatory. I believe it's within 10 days. And of course your DL also needs to reflect your current address.
