From The Gun Writer we get a story from a blue state. Connecticut gun dealers forced to suffer yet another no-sales day
Connecticut doesn't let FFLs run NICS checks. They dealers have to use the Connecticut system, which would be fine if that system actually worked.
Saturday was supposed to be a big sales day for Lock N’ Load Firearms, which is located in Southington, Connecticut. The gun shop has two major sales each year, and Saturday was its “Customer Appreciation Day.” The store spent a lot on advertising the event and on party goods. Several vendors came out for the sale.
The fun ended around 11:40 a.m., when the state’s computer system went down, and it stayed down throughout most of the day.
An employee of another gun store said the outages are becoming a regular thing.
And outages are not the only problem.
Common names, he said, like “John Smith” have become a serious issue for the state’s computer systems, which lack the clarity of a NICS Unique Personal Identification Number or UPIN, which gun owners can apply for.
Which is insane.
The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has begun to ask if the whole thing is a deliberate attempt to stand in the way of the Second Amendment.
