The shutdown will also affect the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, meaning if you wanted a gun permit, you'll have to wait until the shutdown is over. unquote
please note i did not use the term “permits” the quoted article did...
flashback 13 Oct 2013 second week into three week shutdown.: quote
There has been no indication that the government shutdown is affecting the FBI’s NICS section. This is most likely due to the fact that a “hold” or “delay” will trigger a “proceed” or approval if no action is taken by the government after five days.
The government shutdown has been directly impacting the issuing of federal tax stamps for NFA items as all but 2 of the ATF’s examiners were furloughed on October 1, 2013. When calling to find out the status of a tax stamp, the phones at the NFA branch were answered, but the operator stated that they could not give any information regarding status. unquote
