Quite possibly, because even though the case may have been dismissed the record of your arrest will still exist.
In the US, when redeeming a pawned firearm, you will go through the same process as buying the firearm from a dealer (this is Federal Law). The pawnshop operator is required to conduct a background check with the law enfrocement agency that does this. The result may be approved, denied, or delayed. Delayed means just that- no approval yet. It may be due to a computer problem, or that the agency needs to check further. This sometimes happens if you have a name similar to someone that is prohibited from owning a firearm. Usually the delay will be resolved within 3 days- but the pawnshop operator cannot return the firearm until they have received an approval, or the time limit for the background check has been reached. The pawnshop owner will not know why a check was delayed, or denied- only the result.
You had to wait for the criminal background check required when purchasing a firearm. sometimes the system is overloaded. Sometimes you may share a name with someone that cannot own a gun. That will cause a temporary delay.

Depends on the laws where you live. In most cases, there is no delay IF the gun is being returned to the person that pawned it, and the law enforcement background check does not cause a delay. If the background check is failed, that means it is against the law for you to have a gun, and it cannot be returned to you. It may be delayed (you have a name shared with a criminal, for example) That is usually cleared in 3-5 days. If you were denied, and you feel that is in error, you need to address that with the police, and not the pawn shop staff. They are required to follow the law.
Airlines may hold a connecting flight if there is a delay, but it is not guaranteed. It is important to check with the airline and inform them of the delay as soon as possible to see if they can accommodate you on a later flight.
If you tried to buy a gun and it came back as a "delay" that doesn't have anything to do with the State of Kentucky.
