To any members that may be taking a trip to go p/u a firearm today - the NICS

system is down as of this morning at 10:30am

I spoke with NICS and they do not know when the system will be back up?!?! 

 

You may want to call ahead to see if your dealer, store, whatever is able to process

your NICS check before having to be turned away after arrival...............

 

 

Good Luck!

 

ps: If I get notification that the system is back up - i will post it here so you can 

make plans..................

Dam them

System Unavailable

The NICS service is currently unavailable until further notice due to the AOC database being down used to perform the NICS checks.

It's all a conspiracy

found out the hard way, coulda been shooting a Sig P226 MK25 today

It's still Down!?!?!?!?

Yes - Still Down............................

Yeah I found out the hard way also.  Went to a shop this morning about 1 1/2 hours from my house to pick up a new toy and was told the "good" news as well. Ugh.

The comical part of it, for me, I had gotten into a discussion with the shop owner about the last time I had purchased a firearm. It was last year during the gun rush and basically had to fill out the paperwork one day, then wait for over a week before the NIC's came back. As I was talking to him about this he said this new system was fast and hopefully we won't see anything like that again anytime soon.  So yes, this was all my fault for opening my big mouth.

THEY should open tomorrow to catch up on checks.

just hope Monday isnt too backed up. At least this nics will be pulling dbl duty for me.

Yea - You hold on to that thought................. lol

It's still Down!?!?!?!?

 

No it's not - It's all Mark's fault for opening his big mouth................. lol

Were you in Bob's today?

Were you in Bob's today?

no

So nothing went through today?

It's the dems with payback for Bridgegate.

Call it NICSGATE !!!

I'll take the blame.  Today was day 31, and two days before the permit expires.  I've had a Ruger Super Redhawk waiting to be freed and I was in the shop at 9:45. I waited around until 10:30, then have been anxiously awaiting the call.  Now I need to leave work early on Monday assuming the system is back up just so I don't need to get another permit extended.  

Went to buy my first gun ever today, got all the paperwork and payment completed, then find out the system went down.  Had to leave it sitting on the other side of the counter so depressing.

Did it come back online?

All the people buying "dumb" guns today crashed the system

Nope never came back

Here's some salt for your wounds. I made my short loop in PA today.  Tanner's, Clayton's and Classic Pistol.  All were busy with sales and NICS seemed to be instant.  If anyone wants a inexpensive AR,Tanners has at least a pallet and a half M&P Sport models in 556/223 for $556.00.

Nope never came back

Hopefully it comes back so I can come get the xds 4.0 Monday.

With my luck, ups will "shut down" too

NICS isn't the only thing down today. Sitting waiting on history and warrants on a perp. NJ is down. $$$$

FWIW, AOC systems went down statewide yesterday afternoon. So not an anti conspiracy.

I would agree...

Seems like it could be a public safety issue...
