Did something happen to improve NICS background checks for delays?

For the last several years, I would get delayed and then they would not ever call back. I would pick up my gun after 3 days but the check would expire without a call back after the 30 days.

This means if a retailer required a proceed, i.e Cabela's, Walmart, CMP, etc... I basically could not buy a gun there.

But in the last month I've bought 3 guns and I got a proceed in 2 days for the first two and in 3 hours in the one yesterday.

Wonder what changed?

From the beginning of covid, til late last year I got delayed every single time. The past few times I have picked up a gun from my FFL I haven't had a delay. Something changed
