Delegate Mike's view on the Baltimore Sun Article

Pardon me in advance for my anal retentiveness, but...

Gotta multiply by 100 after dividing to get percentage

thus = 0.4% and 0.002%

ex: 10 out of 100 is 10% , 10/100 = 0.1

still not a very significant percentage though...

I think I am having an anxiety attack now since the threat level went up.

Never mind the Dlr following the law. The headlines will be "Dirty gun dealer refuses to head request of MSP , and arms violent felon , putting public in grave danger" .

How about this headline: MARYLAND GUN CONTROL SYSTEM SCREWS THE POOCH
In todays news the over controlling MD state system of not utilizing the federal background system to verify that a individual is lawfully able to purchase a firearm becaue the state wants to use it's own antiquated background check system handled by the MSP which was unable to keep up with demand by order of several months worth of back logs. If the state would comply with reporting to the federal system the check could be completed in minutes rather than months a purchaser would not have slipped through the system because of slowness of the MD system.

Ramble off

So are NICS checks not being done anymore? I haven't purchased anything since last spring.

Maryland doesn't do NICS for handguns, the State Police handles it 100% internally.

I'm pretty sure that the MSP still runs it thru NICS as one of their 17 or so checks.

Yes MSP does.

This, MSP performs the NICS check.
