When did New York State add its own version of NICS in order to buy a gun?

I know about the ammunition purchase but now there is a separate background check just for the state?

I don't remember hearing anything about this in the news. And I can't find any articles.

New York State implemented its own enhanced background check system, linked to the federal NICS but with state-specific requirements, under the NY SAFE Act in 2013,

I couldn't remember when the system went live. I do remember for about a year or so before the system went into effect if you bought ammo from a big box store like Walmart, or even Runnings, they would add your info to a notebook. Gun shops would add the sale to the file they had on you already.
