MECOMMental Competency Database
Firearm Purchase Program
MECOM
Established in February 2007, MECOM is an automated database used to receive and store information from the Clerks of Court pertaining to persons adjudicated mentally defective or committed to a mental institution by a court order or a judicial finding of incapacity.
Information is shared with the FBI NICS and other specified agencies for the purpose of determining firearm sale or transfer eligibility.
Federal and state law prohibits the sale or transfer of firearms to any person adjudicated as mentally defective or committed to a mental institution.
