Sounds like CDOT when we went to SAP for pay/workorders
Nearly two hours at 11:00 today.
Well, it might have been slightly less but I left and went to lunch. Asked the guy to call me. He said it had been taking about an hour but, like I said, it was two before I got the call. Could be he was busy and didn't get around to calling until 1:00.
I really think they thought through most of it. But some of it, as good as it is for end users, is difficult to install. Stop and consider all the wireless terminals. One in every car in larger areas. And each one needs a unique ID and so on.
This and other things are all being done in the name of increased network security while hopefully increasing functionality to the end user. And I have yet to see a seamless or invisible software upgrade that didn't break something else.
I guess that's why POST lets me teach firearms and not computer systems.

I ran a couple of checks by phone early this morning. Almost 1 hour on hold. The checks themselves went quickly.
I started an online check on a forum member (who drove up from down south) at about 12:40pm. It was after 3pm when it was completed. At one point we saw almost 200 checks in queue with an estimated wait time of 3 hours.
I'd prefer the state did away with the CBI checks and allowed dealers to log right into the NICS system. It would save the state a lot of money and it would save gun buyers and dealers a lot of time.
I was in the GS at 1:00 today and was told to come back tomorrow for pick-up. He said the waits are unusually long. I mentioned the new computer system and he was unaware.
Not a big deal. I figured I'd pick it up tomorrow anyway.
Question;
Is there a 72 hour rule on background checks?
There is a background check for internal/prospective law enforcement that goes through Langly; most people don't even know about. It is an expensive system to be a part of. It can check every credit card or check you have ever used in your life. Even governement issued credit cards. They know every prescription drug you have ever purchased too. Somehow they know every gun purchase you have ever made as well- except for private FTF purchases.
Things you think are private are NOT.
Back on topic:
Didn't Colorado pass a law that says basiclly: If you don't get and answer on a firearm background check within 24 Hours, dealers can proceed with the purchase without a response. ??
doubt it will ever happen... the hassles it costs us at work to get people authorization to use the system is bad enough, let alone allowing FFL's access to it would really cause problems. (I can only assume)
Now that the new system (which isn't working) is being used, they have removed many people previously authorized to use CCIC NCIC in our department... now it's limited to a select few and they can't get anything done with it. [Bang]
