It's not going to hurt anyone but criminals to wait an extra minute for NICS.

NICS said "no" to processing ammo checks for Cuomo's NY SAFE Act. They're already overburdened. Hawaii will have to fund and administer the ammo background check system by themselves.

See this post.

NY has shelved theirs indefinitely. Let's see how much Hawaii's taxpayers are willing to fork over for this.
