Has anyone ever seen an estimate on the cost of doing background checks?
Seems like they've been around long enough to get some data--
just curious

The Firearms Program collected a total of $968,955.01 in instant background check fees from firearm dealers during 2001. This total was remitted to the State General Treasury. Firearms dealers are billed monthly at the rate of $5.00 for each instant background check performed. The firearm dealer charges this fee to the prospective purchaser. The estimated cost for conducting the research and completion of records to determine the eligibility of the purchaser is $796,345.00. This includes personal services for GCIC staff as well as federal grant funds used to collect delinquent dispositions.
