Steel Horse Rider So you are smugly stating that all states that supposedly do the checks "in house" are actually merely accessing the federal database through their agents rather than actually doing the checks themselves as they advertise?
In house? Seriously?
You think Colorado or any other state is going to have their own database and not access anything Federal? That's just plain ignorance man.
A full, complete explanation of how background checks are run is right there on the FBI NICS website for ANYONE TO READ. If you would dismount for a few minutes and actually read about the FBI NICS/Brady law you would know I'm not being smug at all.
Who said otherwise?As InkEd posted above concerning Tennessee and Cryogaijin posted about Oregon, Colorado claims that the Colorado Bureau of Investigation conducts the background checks here. In fact, part of the gun legislation concerning face to face transactions that was passed last legislative session added a fee for funding purposes.
Do you know what a state POC is?
