Open Up The Background Check System, Make it Free & Easy To Use

Here is something for the ‘do something’ crowd to actually do that we can agree upon.

Hartford, Connecticut –-(Ammoland.com)- It seems that everywhere we look as a pro-rights organization, we see and hear people talking about ‘common sense’ and ‘compromise’.

Unfortunately, the things that are proposed as ‘common sense’ are often totalitarian edicts that will result in the loss of life and property and the ‘compromise’ consists of anti-rights activists demanding those edicts and then stating that we are unreasonable when we don’t agree with them.

In the interest of ‘common sense’ and compromise, Connecticut Carry proposes that the legislators instead work towards a bill to completely open our Connecticut state background check system and provide instant access to it for free via the internet and possibly via smart phone applications as well.

In working towards this goal, Connecticut Carry would be happy to assist, since we have experience in providing a Conviction History Search service to our members through our website.

Legislators should also work to get the Federal background check system opened to the public and available instantly online. Already the AIFIS system that the Connecticut State Police use for national background checks is automated and returns results in less than 2 hours. There is no reason the NICS couldn’t be opened to the public with near-instant results via handheld devices for free.

This would go a long way towards more background checks in our state and in our country as people would surely appreciate a free and easy way to check the criminal status of people trying to buy a firearm privately from them. No gun owner wants to sell to a prohibited person. Why not give them the tools to make sure they do not since we already have Federal criminal penalties that apply if they do sell to a criminal?

This is a real change that our legislators could be working towards instead of insulting the hundreds of thousands of responsible gun owners in Connecticut with ridiculous bill proposals that seek to ban the majority of firearms and firearms accessories in private hands.

Connecticut Carry is dedicated to advancing and protecting the fundamental civil rights of the men and women of Connecticut to keep and bear arms for defense of themselves and the state as guaranteed by the United States Constitution and the Constitution of Connecticut.

This sounds like a back door trick by the gun grabbers. When you read between the lines it has loopholes, rat holes and every other kind of hole for the liberals to slip through.

I hope this is satire!!

The abuses that this would lead to by both government and private individuals would be incalculable, while paving the way for further collection and consolidation of private information now protected by the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and 6th Amendments. This suggestion is no better than Feinstein's current offering of Progressive potpourri!

If you're a member of this organization, call in and let them know how you feel about it…

I'm a huge fan of satire, irony…I hope that is a tongue in the cheek that I detect. This compromise makes NO common sense!

Compromise will be the demise of Second Amendment! We don’t need BACKGROUND CHECKS or 4473 FORMS! STOP trying to appease the anti-gun crowd with compromises. Look at the History of 68GCA and the Illinois FOID card law. They were all made in the name of compromise and concessions by the NRA, and all they have done is put undue restrictions on our right the keep and bear arms. Mental illness is not the problem it’s the DRUGS they put people on!!!! Look at History before the 68 GCA, we could buy guns through the mail, yet crime was low. We… Read more »
