My C&R application is still not complete and has been a series of errors that now border on ridiculous. Sometimes when things go wrong they have a habit of continuing to go wrong.
I originally sent my application in from a printed form from their web site. I received it back saying they needed complete info because I had "altered" the form. As it turns out when I printed it out on my failing and lame ass computer it inexplicably left out one section and I failed to compare that to the online original. So they sent it back...my fault. So I sent it again........it was returned again. It seems I had purchased a computer at the Apple store....a store that the credit card company has had a ton of fraudulent charges with. The credit card shut the card down thinking it was used fraudulently. Upon calling the low lives they "Claim" to have called my home and asked me to call them about my card..did not happen. In the meantime my long suffering wife was in Michigan on business for six weeks....her card was denied also...thank you very much. I called the credit card company and they asked me about a purchase of a certain dollar amount on a certain date last month. I told them I had no idea who that charge was for and would have to check. Based on that I kickass failed my security check and my card was still suspended. I finally called the credit union and after much trauma that need not be mentioned here, in the interest of brevity, it finally was restored. I then resent the application some some weeks ago.
I then received in the mail a full set of class three application from the county sheriffs office--I had to sent them a copy which is a requirement on the C&R application. They sent me an application "To Make and Register a Firearm" and to include a photograph also a "Tax Paid Transfer and Registration of Firearm ATF form 4, also requesting a set of inked fingerprints, a recent photograph (2x2 please) plus a copy of my drivers license or birth certificate. Also in the package sign and date a copy of "Pima County Sheriff's Department to Applicants for Local Law Enforcement Clearance Pursuant to the National Firearms Act". All of that is nonsense since all they have to do is file the copy of the BAFT application. This required a series of seeming endless call to the pima county sheriff (no caps intended) to try and straighten it out. Of course all I got was voice mail to which I left my pitiful story. Of course after two call asking him to call me nothing. Through sheer luck, mine good and his bad, I finally caught him at his desk. He said "Oh yeah..I got your message." He stated the lady that used to do this left and we don't really know how to do this. Maintaining my composure I told him all he is required to do is file the copy of the batf form....not to take any direction from me., a mere citizen, he said he would check with the batf (which i had already done) and we left it with that after his lengthy protestations on how busy he was. I have since called the Phoenix office and a very helpful lady told me there was no kickass record of my application at all. She gave me the 800 number of the office in Virginia and i called this morning again for the third time and after speaking to the cretin that answered the phone and was told once again for the third there is no record of my application. After each of these calls they forward my call to the person handling the az applications and I left my third pitiful plaintive request for info on application.
You guys that got your easily be thankful...mine may never come.
