Was just reading about the furlough at the shipyard on Hawaii news now and in the last sentence they brought up gun registration for some reason. I don't really see how they are related. Can anyone make sense of it?
The Honolulu Police Department is uncertain about the effect on gun registrations if the dispute drags on.

There's another thread just like this on here. Ncis system will still be active, and unless hpd getting a furlough, don't know why they would, they should still be open.
Try giving them a call and see what they say.

Just talked to a very nice lady in the Firearms section. HPD is NOT being affected by the Federal shutdown. Registrations will continue.

I wonder why they include stuff like that in the article. It's totally unrelated and completely false. Just pushing more of the anti gun agenda I suppose.
-
is that possibly because of the required FBI background check on permits to acquire long guns and handgun registration? That is the only thing associated with the federal government I can think of.

NRA-ILA stated the NICS background checks will not be impacted by the shutdown. This service is considered essential: National Saftety/Security/Law Enforcement-related.

The NICS system is classified as an “essential government service” and will continue operating regardless of how long the so-called “shutdown” endures. (http://bearingarms.com/federal-government-shutdown-does-not-affect-nics-background-checks-on-guns/)
