I have searched several websites as well as reddit/nj guns and kept ending up on the njnics site that shows the last update back on March 11th. Did something change or is there a long backlog? Thx!
I put in NICS on Friday at 11am and the turnaround was 26hrs.
njnics gives you some tracking on the status.
Yeah that’s the right site, @Krdshrk , but if you actually look at the report details @NJpaperpopper is right, the last report date is 3/12 (for 3/11 checks).
Not sure why it’s not updating currently.
Is he the same one that does the update on the NJ Guns Discord page or is that someone else?
Someone must have kicked the machine that scrapes for updates, because it appears to be running again - last update 03/31:
I guess it works when you ask questions or demand proof of life 
Yes. That is Nick from the old forum. He is on Discord and here.
What is the current turnaround time for NJ NICS?
Thanks9
