Coincidence?

I ran 11 so far. They have to be faxed in. I dialed about 30 times per check until it went through.

:keeporder:

Guess everybody getting their purchases in before the feared ban hammer

Plus it's less than 1 week to the Mayan Apocalypse.

I was at Bullseye talking to Chris and NICS wasn't receiving faxes, even after 11 attempts.

ban guns? No

 

ban NICS? sure, then no guns

I was at the Oaks gun show for about an hour or two today. All I heard was people waiting crazy long times due to NICS.

i was at oaks also...talked to several people that waited 3+ hrs on nics...

Went to Oaks today also. Dealer told me PA NICS was doing 1600 checks an hour!

I just ordered a few more Saigas in case there is a run on them. Hopefully NICS answers the phone next week so I can take delivery

Today Monday Dec 17th.

 

I faxed 8 checks in. Still no call back from 10:10AM.

Was at Heritage Guild in Branchburg about 3 hours ago. They had 5 in the hopper and I was next with 3 others right behind me. Have not heard back yet. Sweet.

From HG, when I asked if my NICS had come back yet:

 

"Are you waiting from today or SATURDAY?" (My emphasis)

 

They have no calls back from today's requests yet.

I waited about 2.5hrs on Saturday, hopefully it'll get better soon.

huh... never thought of that. No NICS, no gun purchases. Interesting (and scary).

defacto elimination of gun purchasing at this point.

 

NICS = National Instant Criminal Background Check System,

 

Instant? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Looks like the ffl's may have to threaten a lawsuit for infringement on business

Why does NJ have to use its own NICS and not the one the rest of the country uses that takes under 1 minute

Why does NJ have to use its own NICS and not the one the rest of the country uses that takes under 1 minute

 

So they can have another reason to deny us a firearm.

Damn... it's like a race to the finish... "how fast can we pass emergency gun control" vs "omg buy your guns NOW"...

 

DENVER (CBS4) – The day after the shooting in Connecticut a lot of people in Colorado tried to buy a gun.

 

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation says it received 4,154 requests for background checks from potential buyers on Saturday. That was so many the CBI couldn’t process them all and the backlog grew to nearly 18 hours. The Unit could only process 3,001 checks on Saturday.

 

Extra staff was brought in over the weekend and workers are still trying to clear the backlog.

I have an Off topic NICS question. Is it true that in other states the FFL vendors call in the NICS directly whereas in NJ you guys have to use the state police as a middle man? One of the vendors I used previously had mentioedn that, just wondering if I heard that correctly

 

TIA

Thank you Sir! looking over on THR and several similar topics there.. there is one thread called Looks like the panic buying has already started post #55 put it best because I too was looking for some 5.56, he says "looks like 223/5.56 is as scarce as hens teeth" never heard it put that way, but he is correct
