No background check CCW
I recently bought a Ruger Mark IV at a gun show. I filled out the 4473 but he didn't have to call it in since I just renewed my CCW license a couple months ago.
SWEET!!!!

Re: No background check CCW
Just keep in mind that it is completely up to the dealer whether or not they use your NICS compliant CHL in place of calling in the NICS check. Nothing in the law says they have to use it.

Private seller fellers have been using the ''show your CHL'' as a condition of sale for years now. 'Bout time the state caught up to modern times
Acquisitions thus far:
-Slingshot
-Butter knife
-Soda straw and peas
-Sharpened pencil
-Newspaper roll
--water balloon (*diversionary*)
Yeah, I'm that good

Re: No background check CCW
It wasn't really the state, it was the ATF rules that the state had to comply with before an FFL could use the CHL in lieu of callin in the background check - which is why Ohio now does a NICS check when you apply for your CHL.WhyNot wrote:Good 4 U ! !AzRanger wrote:I recently bought a Ruger Mark IV at a gun show.

So if you get a delay through NICS on hand gun purchase then the FFL call the next day and says pick up your gun. Will you also get a delay when you renew your CCW? Will the Sheriff's office call the next day and say pick up your CCW?

Re: No background check CCW
Any CHL issued or renewed March 23, 2015 or later can be used (at the dealer's discretion) to bypass the NICS check.Cruiser wrote:What was the date that law became active?

Yes, I imagine they would wait for the "Proceed" notification before issuing the license.glove wrote:So if you get a delay through NICS on hand gun purchase then the FFL call the next day and says pick up your gun.

Re: No background check CCW
Technically no. FFLs use NICS which is essentially a front end to NCIC (and two other databases) and it only returns the three statuses we all know and love. On the other hand, law enforcement uses NCIC more or less directly.JustaShooter wrote:Yes, I imagine they would wait for the "Proceed" notification before issuing the license.glove wrote:So if you get a delay through NICS on hand gun purchase then the FFL call the next day and says pick up your gun.

Anyway, what the sheriff will get is the person's full history through NCIC. He, or more precisely, his clerk or deputy, will pick through the results to see if there is anything disqualifying. Sometimes a record will indicate the person is prohibited from possessing a firearm, but that's almost always in conjunction with a protection order. A guy could have a conviction for murder and a query won't bring back a red alert saying not allowed to own guns or anything. It'll just bring down the basics of the case: jurisdiction, charge(s), dates, case numbers, etc. If you're lucky it will have the disposition.
Jedi is far more familiar with querying NCIC than I am and can probably provide greater detail. I think there may be an option to run a straight up NICS query, but if you get a deny or delay you're going to have to run the full query anyway to be able to justify the denial of the CHL.
Anyway, NCIC != NICS.

Interesting. The way the change to the law read, I thought they used a simple NICS check.djthomas wrote:Technically no.

Re: No background check CCW
One possible reason for delay on NICS could come from the buyer not providing SSN. No such issue with the CHL records check maybe. Might eliminate some delays.
