    Anybody know why it takes 17 databases to clear a regulated purchase and what those 17 databases are?

    I can't believe it takes that many....thus so slow.

    It's not slow at all....it should take no more then 12-15 minutes and that's for someone fairly untrained.

    It takes 17 because none of them talk to each other. Not every MD arrest gets put into the federal system. MD doesn't put anyone into the federal psych system. DUI arrests dont get put into the federal system.

    And NONE of the system talk to each other.

    The systems are listed in other threads on here.
