While this may belong in the 2nd forum technically, I thought it would get more viewing here.
Not at all and Not to be political, just factual. The NJ State Police NICS unit have been directed to only respond to FAX initiated NICS check. THey are not to respond to phone etc. like they normally do.
Of course there's only 1 fax number and the backlogs and busy signals are horrendous. Dealers are having to try to get faxes thru with major delays. And then of course there's a delay in getting answers back. A nlot of dealers are closing to normal walkin business to only handle 'approved' transfers.
NICS checks that used to take a few minutes are now taking 3 or more days.
And of course there's always the insult to injury thing about having to pay $20 for a free federal service.
