Featured Replies

Anyone know what the NICS wait time is today?

waited 1 1/2 hrs before suggesting to my FFL that he google and check the NJ website for a state closure. Sure enough, state offices closed early. now i have to wait til wednesday.

Just went this morning, came in and out throughout the day before giving up just before 5. Now to try and get my permit extended.

Is there longer wait times for permits this year? I submitted my paperwork and $18.00 check to my local PD before Christmas and I still don't have my permits.

Is everyone else experiencing this?

my fiance submitted paperwork in September, she finally got the call that they were ready and picked them up yesterday.(6 month wait) they were dated for 2/5/15.  So the 90 day expiration date is 20 days old already.

All depends on your town.

Well, last Saturday I waited a little more than 90 minutes.

 

They're gonna need to find a new acronym without an "I"

NICS submitted 11:30am Saturday Mar 21st. As of 5pm.... No response from NICS office on mine or anyone else's INSTANT background check. On Friday, the near useless govt. employees at the NICS left at 2pm because of the snow. Nearly everyone else in the private sector continued to work all day. This departure probably created a backlog.

 

My FFL dealer checked with a few other shops and was told they had zero NICS responses on Saturday as well.

 

Great system. As far as it being fixed...it isn't. And it won't be any time soon given what I've seen in our state govt. workforce.

same here, I too am waiting for a check from Saturday. 

Been close to two hours today and still no response, from a request initiated today

Because of the backlog created when the state closed early Friday due to the snow.

Most of Saturday was spent processing Friday's leftovers

Saturday's submissions are being handled today

 

And on and on it goes

Been close to two hours today and still no response, from a request initiated today

Took over 3 hours to get response. Had to go back and end of day to pick it up.

I am soooooo glad I don't have to deal with that. AND, about one-third of my customers have a CCW, so no NICS is even done.

That would make sense, wouldn't it.

I bought a CX Storm on Monday around 2pm, and the store Rahway Heritage Guild (aka NJ FAG) was still waiting on their checks from 11am, 3 hours earlier.

 

I still haven't gotten a call that my check from yesterday is done yet...
