NICS Wait time

Featured Replies

I have 2 in my 01 FFL now and was told NICS is running a full week! Just another way NJ is fucking with your 2nd. One is a Stevens riot gun, and a Rem 1903.

I've been waiting a month for a P2P so I can pick up a Springfield XD I bought. I really hate seeing the NIC so slow as well.

Where is the NRA and others with the litigation? Missing in action once again I suppose, on day 5 myself...

Folks, don’t you realize that gun purchases are up substantially with the Bruen decision?  People are buying like crazy to get carry guns so they can submit an application.  This has a big impact on NICS delays.  I don’t like it either, but I doubt the state is going to ramp up to speed up the process.  Democrats are the biggest gun salespeople.  Every time they talk about gun restrictions, people flock to gun stores and buy up what is available.  This has also contributed to longer than usual NICS delays.  It sucks, but we’re going to have to deal with it until the panic buying slows down.

The NRA has not led the fight on ANY NJ issue, but continues to cite their "support" for the actions taken by others and mail fund raising letters. When my membership expires it will not be renewed.

Can confirm that recent NICS are indeed taking up to a week.

Last I heard is that it’s taking 4-5 days.

Sadly I agree, and most of my money goes to others that actually do something.

I thought after three days and no NCIS response we can get our stuff, but no gun store has the guts t do that...

As you see in my signature, I found other organizations to support, all with a good track record of working to correct NJ over regulation. Apparently the three day rule is one of the other rights we have to lament.

More rights lost to the cold civil war we are losing......

12 days is too long. Call your ffl

Called on Mon (10 days into it) and they said they were still waiting.

Did your FFL say if you are delayed?

I did a NIC in Shooters Wednesday afternoon and was told 5-6day was what they were seeing.

Jeeze.

Guess there are still a lot of folks picking up their carry guns.

Glad i took care of it last year...

This was just a spur of the moment decision for a Springfield XD9 subcompact since they still had the GearUp offer for free mags running. For $400 I couldn't walk away.

The obvious question is, why does my NICS check in Texas go through in 5 mins, when the same check in NJ takes a week? 
 

NJ is playing games.
