The Future of NICS Technology


Spotlight On the 2018 Firearms Industry Compliance Conference

Attention all FFL retailers, are you interested in learning what changes are coming for background check technology and how it will impact your over the counter firearm sales?  Join Jill Montgomery, Senior Liaison Specialist, FBI NICS Division and executives from Orchid Advisors on Thursday, May 17 as part of the 2018 Firearms Industry Compliance Conference (FICC).

Over the last several years FFLs and their software vendors have used a variety of methods to efficiently conduct NICS background checks. Solutions vary widely from utilizing variances to create fully integrated Point of Sale and eNICS systems to systems that employ electronic “robots” to submit multiple eNICS applications directly through to the eNICS website. This session will address developments in NICS submission technology and what the future holds for FFLs.

Within this small group session, attendees will enjoy a personal learning experience where industry members can ask questions directly to FBI NICS leadership. Topics in this year’s FBI NICS Technology session include:

  • Current Software Technology
  • Available Options for eNICS Integration
  • Integration Processes and Timelines
  • Future State of Over the Counter Sales
