I wonder if they are running NICS checks on ammo

[SharpD0g]

I recently ordered (and received today) 4K rds of Wolf 100 gr 6.5G ammo (really great price and many props to Ammunition Depo .. they raised the price after my order)

However, The order was put in on Sunday and on Monday morning I got a message that my 'order had cleared' and the reason it needed to ne cleared was 'HighRoller'.

Now I usually order in 500-1000 rd quantities and had never had this happen on many, many orders. It all was fine but it got me wondering. Do they run NICS checks or some other DHS check on ammo sales?

PS. The reason I ordered 4K rds was the recent school shooting ... you never know what they will do or whether there will be another run on ammo

Just call Ammo Depo and find out. We can speculate all sorts of nonsense here, but you made the order, so just call the nice folks there and have them explain things to you.

Last I checked, there were no NCIS checks on ammo.

Last I heard NY and CA were building their own NICS-equivalent systems on the state level that would include ammo.

How does that not surprise me

By now, I would think everyone on this forum would have at lest a case (5000) primers in the closet...even those of us who don't reload. It's only prudent..and they wont degrade or loose value in our lifetimes.

They likely were checking whether or not your purchase would go through on your credit card.
