NCIC doesn't do anything about stolen vehicles. It's simply a national database that flags stoeln property, missing and wanted persons. When a law enforcement officer runs an article, vehicle or person through NCIC, the result returned will be either that the item or person in question is clear of if there's a record. In the case of a vehicle, NCIC would return either a clear or stolen record. The law enforcement agent will then take the appropriate action. In order to return a hit (stolen), a vehicle first has to have been entered into NCIC as such by a aw enforcement official.

When a gun is reported stolen will it always be in the system?
When a stolen firearm is entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) it remains on that records until it is recovered, and removed from the database.Added: The above response is correct BUT - it does not answer the original question. A stolen firearm will be entered into NCIC IF the complainant is able to supply the firearm's serial number.
What website do you check to find out if a firearm is stolen?
Sorry- there IS no website where you can positively determine that a firearm is not stolen. Law enforcement uses the NCIC system, but that is NOT available to private persons. Local law enforcement MAY be willing to run the serial number of the gun through NCIC, but will need to have possession of the gun while doing it. In case it IS stolen, they have it.

How do you know if the gun you have is clean and has not been stolen?
There is no easy way for a private citizen to check the legitamacy of a given firearm. The stolen gun database (NCIC) is a Federal computer system open only to law enforcement. MOST states do NOT have a system nor a requirement to register guns. Local law enforcement MAY be willing to run your gun through the NCIC system, but will want to have possession of the gun in case it IS stolen.
