The first guns I bought after they imposed background checks did not go well. I was denied because the Pennsylvania data base that they used for gun purchases had an incorrect social security number despite the fact that I had been paying taxes and submitting tax returns to the same state for 25 years.
It took my state representative and a month to get it fixed. In the mean time, the guns that I had bought at auction were resold and I never did get them.
That is why the government can not take forever to approve a background check. |

| I should add that I am an army veteran with an honorable discharge, never charged with any crime, and had a Professional Engineering License in four states. But the government would not approve my purchase of a gun because their records were incorrect. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
