The MD copycat law says OAL <29". That means 29" should be legal.
But who knows what these people think.

Been trying to get ahold of 'my' investigator(or whatever they're called) but, no such luck. Every time I call, I get switched over to the guy's desk only to get his voice mail. Maybe away for holiday still?? I'll give it a couple days, then try again. Last thing I need is being charged with harassing the BATF(kidding I hope).
Any update? I'm really anxious to hear what the problem/resolution was since I submitted a e-file form 1 on 11 November.
A month and a half is pretty good. All my e-filed forms have been returned in about a month.
The fastest paper form 4 from pending to approved I've gotten was just under 4 months.
Nope. Won't answer his phone, won't return my calls. I'm just gonna resubmit with a few changes.
BTW, sumitted 19 October, denied 30 November. Less than a month and a half?
Good... hopefully I'll get mine back soon. It's another good test case, as it's a 22LR semi-auto SBR under 29 inches.
How do I add multiple barrel lengths to my form 1? It will let me type "multi" for the caliber, but won't let me for barrel length.

Don't type multi caliber you will most likely be denied.

1) Do your trust.
2) Go to someplace like Kinko's with a copy of your executed trust. Tell them you want it scanned to a file size less than 3 megabytes. Or to multiple <3MB files.
3) eFile
Pinecone: I've got 15 pages of Trust of which pp. 13,14 and 15 are the Certification of Trust/Declaration of Trust. Then I have an Assignment Sheet and a Schedule of Beneficiaries sheet.
If I go to UPS Store or the like, am I asking them to scan each page individually to less than 3 megabytes or the total of 15 pages to less than 3 megabytes (on an SD card, I presume)? I assume that I efile all 15 pages to the ATF, but not sure.
Hawkeye said that he PDF'd his Trust, so it is ready for eFile any time. That sounds nice.
I'm just learning this process as you can see.
Take it to kinko's. Have them copy and convert to PDF and email it to you. Save it to downloads and upload it from there to the storm. Mine is almost 20 pages and comes way under 3mbs total. Easy peasy japanesey.

Yep. You and I are working off of the same trust, so you should be able to do this too.
I did it at a Kinko's (I was pressed for time or I would have done it on one of our copiers at work), but anywhere that can scan will work. Hell, if you have a scanner at home it will work.
What you want to do is scan the entire thing as one big document (with the possible exception of your Schedule A, which you can keep as a separate one to make it easier to re-scan should you change it by adding or removing something). I did mine on the highest resolution that the flatbed scanner at Kinko's would handle, and it's well under 3MB. Save it to a thumb drive (or more preferably, somewhere in the cloud) and you're all set.
Then you can take your original home, put it in the safe, and only ever take it out if you need to change the Schedule A. When I did an eForm, I just submitted the pdf. When I did a paper Form 4 at a local dealer, I printed out a new copy from the pdf and used that. Super easy.
