Information must go to the NICS file. The Virginia Tech shooter had a mental health issue and has been to Court over it. That fact was not reported. We also need to tighten up names. James John Smith may be a criminal but if he gives his name as Jimmy Jack Smith for the NICS check it may pass or cause the check overtime where the NICS times out. We spend a lot of money, time and effort on this check, we should see it works.
