I tried to purchase a rifle in VA earlier today. I'm a TN resident which means I can buy in VA except handguns. I was put on "delay" when they called it in, and about an hour later the owner called and talked to a supervisor. They said it would be at least tomorrow. This happened before in VA once, I should have learned my lesson then. I can get in and out in 15 minutes in TN. It will come back approved, I have no doubt, but I have to drive out of my way to get back there when it does.
I find this to be insulting. It is a clear violation of my rights. I'm so outraged by this, but I don't know what to do other than rant. Clearly this will be my last VA transaction ever, but it isn't like telling off a retailer and boycotting them; how do you boycott a state?!
Of course as a hardcore 2A purist, I think requiring a background check at all is unconstitutional and the actions of tyranny, but this is excessive abuse on the part of the VA background check folks.
