Our system is also much, much faster than using the FBI. I typically get an answer in less than 5 minutes. Added costs? Yes there are but as someone in business it is worth it to me for the increased speed and accuracy.


Steve, if it worked great at $10, then it continued to work at $6, why raise it to $15? Possible answer ............. to further discourage the buying of more guns in the first place.

Hey, don't laugh. It worked when Bill Clinton raised the annual fee for a FFL from $10/yr. to $200/yr. Licensees dropped from 282,00 to barely over 100,000 in just a short time span. I was one of them who, due to moving a small number of guns, could not justify the increase.

Follow the $$$$.

We do both here,both no charge, FBI NICS for long guns-95% if time immediate reply of proceed-delay or deny,you can even go on line no wait there either.The handguns go through State PD NICS, 20 min average call back.
What percentage of denied NICS checks are prosecuted ?
Out of 556,496.............254 a .04% prosecution rate
