First off, I don't like the idea of the NICS system at all. For now, it's something licensed dealers have to use.
Expanding it so anyone could use it would lead to everyone using it to run superfluous background checks on themselves, and it would bog the system down for retailers.
As it is, the system has been hopelessly overburdened the last week.
