No, it needs to be eliminated. Why are we paying $15 (plus tax ) for a NICS check already paid for through taxes on firearms? So we can pay a receptionist a NJ Trooper's salary to call NICS instead of the FFL conducting the check. It's nonsense. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RobCo 16 Posted July 14, 2020 Typical NJ, nothing ever changes. One of THE most unfriendly states to gun owners. And thanks to left, the rioters and the "protesters" guns have been flying off the shelves. My last 3 pistol permits I had to purchase the guns online (GunBroker, Armslist) and had them transferred to NJ as no one had what I was looking to get.

RobCo 16 Posted July 14, 2020 I was looking for a P38 (which I had to good fortune to purchase off an FFL in North NJ) S&W M&P 2.0 in Flat Dark Earth ( found on Gunbroker from a shop in FL) Ruger Redhawk .44 with 7.5 barrel (ended up with a Ruger Super Redhawk .44 with 9 barrel (found on Gunbroker from MN) When I was at Middlebrook a few weeks ago, you could see their stock was low. They had no shotguns to speak of at that time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greenday 323 Posted July 15, 2020 Went to my FFL to pick up my 1911. It's like 1000% more beautiful than its pictures. Totally forgot about how long NICS is taking. Used to take me 10 minutes. When the guy said, "Okay, it'll be about 4-5 days, do you want to pay now or when you pick it up?" it felt like being stabbed in the heart. 4-5 days now for a simple NICS check RIGHT after having just gone through the 44 day NJ background check.
