New NICS delays?

Saw some grumblings on the NS2AS Facebook page, that NICS was back to fax/waiting game..

Can anyone confirm this?

Perfect timing as I'm hoping to see a set of P2P's issued this week.

if you call up to a 15 minutes wait  at times a delay, then yes.....otherwise NO DELAYS

They get busy on Saturdays and sometimes they turn off the phones and only accept faxes.

Had a check run on Monday. First call was a busy signal and call and check went through with out issue on the second attempt. I asked the FFL how NICS has been and he said Saturday is the only time they see a consistent issue. He said on Saturdays it is only optional that they work. There is normally a manager and two others running background checks. When they are overwhelmed that is when they go to the fax. Also he said there are more delayed checks being issued. He is seeing more first time purchasers being delayed as it takes time to find their info in the system.

Maybe if they stopped using a card catalog and dewy decimal system...............Never mind.
