The Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) internal process for firearms-related background checks is gearing up for a change. A secondary system, known as the National Data Exchange (N-DEx), will be implemented in conjunction with the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), National Public Radio (NPR) reported.
"The N-DEx system is an unclassified national information sharing system that enables criminal justice agencies to search, link, analyze, and share local, state, tribal, and federal records," the FBI's website said. "N-DEx is also a strategic investigative information sharing system that fills informational gaps and provides situational awareness."
N-DEx is being implemented because of previous NICS failures, particularly in the Charleston church shooting incident where 21-year-old shooter Dylann Roof was able to purchase a firearm two months before the shooting despite having a felony drug arrest on his record. That arrest should have barred him from purchasing a firearm.

They probably should make it illegal to use heroin, too.
Sounds unconstitutional. Not that that will stop them.
Hmm. Is oberfurher hogg too busy on his whistle stop tour of the country stopping him from commenting on this? Or has his 18 minutes run out finally.
FBI tries to disarm Americans while working to take over the election process. Probably this is why the next “security” step.
Do I recall that the enabling legislation for NICS specifically prohibited this sort of parallel system?
Used gun prices just went up.. d;^)
Maybe, haven't heard anything in weeks. Shhhhhh!
This is where they blend in your debit card liquor and tobacco purchases, grammar school GPA, parking tickets, barking dog complaints, do you snore, last time you had a hair cut, if you have ever taken an aspirin etc. Anything to create more “prohibited persons” don’t you know. Thanks again Jeff.
This has WHAT legislative authority???
Well, match them up with pot cards. That should keep them busy prosecuting druggies for perjury on forms and their illegal gun possession and leave legal gun owners alone.
Probably too busy playing violent computer games from his parent’s basement.
Hogg is busy now making the transition to SS-Obergruppenführer
I know. It’s spooky. Shhhhhhh.

The FBI seems to be moving into a Deep state tool.
But I don’t inhale!
DISMANTLE FBI.
The republic can survive without it.
Any government agency as corrupt as the FBI should be afraid of an armed citizenry.
