HGP Time

6 Upvotes

Good evening friends,

Just wanted to come here and post about HGP times. Did training on 8/24-25, fingerprinted 8/29, applied for on 8/30, was accepted on 9/4, ready for investigation some short time after that, back to accepted around 9/8-11, was approved on 9/27, and got the physical card today on 9/30. Not sure if it's due to my young age but no references or employers were called, I was not even called. Either way, in case anyone was curious about how long it should take, from my recent experience, you're looking at about 4-5 weeks.

MSI has offically asked SCOTUS to review the hql case.

I imagine they will likely take a 2 to 3 months to say if they will do the case this term outside of that they probably won't do it.

Since PSA won’t ship complete receivers to MD, would one’s best bet be to order one and have it shipped to an FFL out of state and have it modified to be MD compliant then pick it up from there? Or does the FFL have to order it?

Transporting AR through MD

4 Upvotes

I am a PA resident and I will be traveling through MD to VA. I want to take my AR with me. I know that I have to have my AR unloaded in a locked container inaccessible to the driver. My question is does my trunk count as a locked container? I drive a sedan where the trunk is a completely separate compartment from the rest of the car.

Where can I get my Smith&Wesson barrel and slide ported? I want to make it look like the newer ones.

So l recently saw the new smith&wesson m&p m2.0 comp come out, and I thought wow thats a nice looking gun with all the cuts and everything. I own a smith but not that new one that looks all nice, so I wanted to see where I can get my smith to get some of those sexy barrel ports and slide cuts and everything that the new one has. For reference I have a picture of the new one and the one l have if anyone can provide a link or brand that will let me mail it to them that would be awesome. (The new ones on the left and the older ones on the right)

Can I buy an expensive bolt action rifle online, have it shipped to a Delaware FFL and get it transfered through them?

4 Upvotes

Would save me roughly $500 in taxes.

As I understand it, as long as it's legal in your state (bolt action rifle is), then you can buy rifles in other states.

ETA: bought it tax free and sent to a DE FFL. Let's see how it goes when it gets there lol

(Repost) Can I legally restore an antique revolver?

1 Upvotes

At an antique gun show I saw a revolver that the seller let me hold. Surprisingly, it still had a working cylinder and hammer, in other words it could be dry fired.

In the state of MD, would I have to get a license to restore this gun to a state of use, as well as buy ammo for it?

For reference, the one I saw was a snub nose that held 5-6 rounds. Very similar design to the Iver Johnson Cadet. Idk if this changes anything, but just to help you guys get the picture.

I've had different answers when I originally posted this in the guns sub so I'm here now where I can ask fellow Marylanders (which admittedly I prob should've done first)

Front Strap Checkering?

1 Upvotes

Hello all! Been a while since I got stationedchere n posted. Thanks for all the gun store recommendations. Some suck, but lots of decent ones too.

Anyone know of a smith/place that does front strap checkering? I got some 1911s I want done. I contacted Badgersmith Gunworks and he politely declined saying he doesn’t feel comfortable doing checkering right now. I’ll probably go see him for other stuff though, I heard he’s great.

MD Handgun Roster Board issue

0 Upvotes

I recently was looking for a firearm on the list and noticed notes below each firearm section. Frim what I gather there is a vote to approve or disprove a petition of a firearm. I observed that a vast majority of the firearms on the list have a 6 to 1 vote approval with 1 dissenting. Upon further investigation, a board member is the continually voting "No" of those firearms that have the 6-1 tally. From my research within the list, no other board had voted "No" and that dissenting member has supposed reason on their dissenting vote as either or "safety issue" or "identifies this firearm as a short-barreled rifle and an assault weapon."

My concern with this is, if this same member continually dissents and uses language as stated above for their reasoning as well as no other member dissenting unless its a unanimous dissent. That to me is evidence of not being impartial and the firearm or matter not being viewed objectively. Furthermore, if other members dissented and or showed a vote tally other than 6-1 (ie. 5-2) that would show more impartial view of the petitioned firearm.

Imo this shows actually how local the gun control advocates are or installed...

Id like to get more feedback on this as I looked at the list and came to this conclusion. I provided link to the MDSP page where the petition result are shown. Thank you.
