[QUOTE="Richard Owl Mirror, post: 800812, member: 67793"] No the auction was at a local place listed as an estate auction. He said he owned the rifle but, since it was already listed he couldn't pull it out. I can only assume, being in an auction, he wanted the highest price paid. When I spoke to him the morning of the auction he said he already had people who phoned him with bids. There is one wrinkle, which has been ironed out. I went to Cabela's originally because they had a sale ongoing. I took the background check and was denied. I couldn't understand the reason why since i haven't been in trouble. I applied an appeal to find the answer. The answer came back saying that in 1983 someone reported me as having 'Damaged Property'. I was completely unaware of this to this day. I called the District Attorney in Georgia and they said that the charge had been dismissed in 1983 because there was no evidence i was involved yet, apparently this record still existed as being in a state of [URL="http://www.law.uga.edu/dwilkes_more/38deaddocket.pdf"]DEAD DOCKET[/URL] ([B]pdf[/B])? They are sending me a letter stating that the charge was dismissed in 1983 and I need to send that to the NICS so they can clear the matter up and allow me to purchase through the background check system. I should get that letter some time this week, then have to wait until the NICS responds before i can go to an FFL dealer and legally purchase a firearm. That is why I was relying on my friend to help me out. [/QUOTE]
