After a disscussion at the "Bait" shop this morning the owner believes that all shell sales were handled as if everyone was from out of state, As gold40 said.
Gun sales we believe was another matter. We assume, and you know about that word, that all federal laws were followed to the T, the phone in check may have been done at an on sight computer or just didn't take very long. Phone in normally takes about 30min. I think the 24hr period was either waved or worked around with back dating. I know that at gun shows there are checks done all the time and dealers won't do anything like that. But I doubt very much if a gang-banger was going to buy a $12,000 single barreled trap gun to rob the Jiffy Mart, so a little leeway may have been given or heads turned.
