The NICS Index contains records provided by local, state, and federal agencies about persons prohibited from receiving firearms under federal law. All records in the NICS Index are considered to be “federally disqualifying records” and will prohibit the transfer of a firearm. Among the records in the NICS system are those including the names of individuals who have been adjudicated as having a mental disability or committed to a mental institution.
