If they perform the background checks, what's the point?

I doubt that it would make any difference at all if Walmart stopped selling guns.

The three day waiting period. If no response is given on the background check you can let them take the gun after three business days.

Well, three days is hardly enough time to do a thorough background check. That is ridiculous.

How long do you think it should take? If your record is clean it doesn’t take long. My husband gets a security background check and it’s pretty quickly done. And they look for everything. You give your SSN and it looks for arrests or other crime that could make you ineligible.
