that is the purpose of NICS and how it supposed to work.. I let my CHL lapse for a couple of years, and during that time had to go through NICS when I bought something. Never took more than 10 minutes...
You still have to fill out the 4473 (or whatever they call it now), that hasn't changed.. but the CHL is acceptable proof that you meet the requirements, and superceeds the NICS and Brady forms in Texas.
