Do I have a background check and/or waiting period for buying a shotgun? Or can I walk in and walk out that day with it?

I buy a long gun every week... I have never had to wait to take it home. Pick out a pretty one, fork over the cash, fill out the required forms, pass the background check, go home, and stroke gun for 8 hours.

Next week, repeat above.
A long gun every week? You must have a really big safe.

Before getting my CHL passing the NICS was hit and miss for me. Sometimes it was cleared right away, sometimes it would be delayed, and once it was outright denied. I have a clean record but the guy in NJ that has the same name and birth date as me does not. I love my CHL.

Back on topic...the OP should work closely with the PD before doing what he is suggesting. Having a uniformed officer present would be ideal. If he has to do it at all that is.
