NICS to Delay 18-20yr old for enhanced check.

[Artos]

Email from NICS


As a result of the passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) of 2022, signed into law on June 25, 2022, the NICS Section is working towards the implementation of an enhanced background check process for persons between the ages of 18-20. The enhancement provides the opportunity for additional outreach and research to be conducted regarding the existence of any juvenile adjudication information and/or mental health prohibition. As a result, transactions on persons between the ages of 18-20 will initially be delayed. In order to conduct the aforementioned outreach and research, the address of the individual will be collected so that the appropriate local and state entities may be contacted. All descriptive information, including address, will follow normal purge requirements (i.e., deleted from NICS within 24 hours of the FFL receiving a proceed status.) If potentially prohibiting juvenile information is uncovered, the BSCA allows for the delay period to extend up to ten business days. However, if no potentially prohibiting information is located, the transaction will be proceeded as soon as possible.

The NICS Section is working in collaboration with numerous other entities in the implementation of all aspects of the BSCA and will keep you informed as additional guidance becomes available.
Thank you!

Old enough to be draftable but not for smoking, drinking, buying guns, renting a car, etc

DonÂ’t forget to register for selective service and donÂ’t forget to file your taxes, 18 year olds.

ThatÂ’s what I hate about Nu-America. YouÂ’re treated like youÂ’re 15 until you are 62 then and only then they treat you like youÂ’re 30. Where you just work and pay taxes until you die.

The Framers killed Aristocrats and Noblemen over far, far less

I had to file taxes before I was 18.

7 year olds can decide what gender they are and have their bodies mutilated and receive hormone therapy yet an 18 year old is not old enough to exercise their Constitutional rights.

I was in the service at 18, turned 19 in AIT.
I got my notice that I had to apply for selective service immeadiatly at my local Post Office.
My Drill Sergeant wouldn't allow me to leave to do that.
So, my first "Assault Weapon" was free, all I had to do is clean it and turn it back in at night, heck, they even gave me free ammo. All financed by the .gov .mil, wasn't I lucky?

What does that mean in relation to the recent decision by ATF/FBI in reporting delays to local police?
