Calvert County CLEO - back to MSP.

BradMacc82 · Jul 9, 2013

It seems Sheriff Evans is no longer doing CLEO signoffs.

That just blew my hopes of doing my first SBR out of the water. It's fitting too, finally get my shit together, just to say "oh well".

back to state trooper barracks?

Write up your own NFA trust.

If you can't do it, get a lawyer to write you one up.

I had been told a few times that Evans would do the CLEO signoff on from 1's and form 4's, saving you the wait for MSP to get off their duffs. Guess that isn't the case anymore.

Was directed today to drop my Form 1 off with MSP instead.

Inigoes - I ain't got the money or know-how to establish my own trust. So it looks like I'll be hanging onto my NFA cherry for some time to come.

Until you live in America anyway!

Going the MSP sign off route isn't a big deal. (I can hear the keyboards clicking already from the Trust boys

). I've done it over 30 times. My last 2 took about 3-1/2 weeks from drop off to MSP signed off forms in my mailbox. Don't let the CLEO sign off stop you from joining the NFA club.

Looks like I'll have to make a trip to Pikesville then I guess?

I ask because the Deputy directed me to the local barracks, right down the street.

Go figure, Calvert Sheriff's Office promotes themselves as the primary LE agency??

The part about writing your own trust is bad advice and I'm not saying that because it's a business line. Do you understand Maryland and Federal Firearms Law to its fullest extent? Do you understand Maryland Estates and Trust Law to its fullest extent? Do you even understand the core principles of a trust and how a trust functions?

You pay legal professionals because they are trained in the law and absorb the liability if something goes awry with your legal paperwork/matter much like you pay a heart surgeon to perform heart surgery instead of climbing up on your dinner table and having a friend cut you open with a steak knife.

Buy once, cry once; a few hundred bucks is a small fee to pay to avoid 10 years and/or $250K in fines if a Court determines that your trust is invalid and you have been possessing NFA items illegally the entire time.

He's retiring from what I have heard.

Why would he be sponsoring a Golf Tournament for his reelection 8/9/13?

He's announced he's running for re-election in '14. Spoke to his wife and she confirmed it, she then gave me his cell # so I could ask about my Form 1 signoff.

I wouldn't go that far just yet. I'm hoping there was some sort of confusion on his part, so I WILL be contacting him again.

If I'm still directed to go to MSP, then my feelings may change some. We'll see.

StillServing · Jul 10, 2013

I agree. I personally spoke to him a few yrs back about signing my Form 4 when I was gearing up for my first NFA purchase and he said he saw no reason why he wouldn't sign it as the CLEO. I ended up going the Trust route with some other family members so I didn't need to use him. He also was very against SB281, and is Pro 2A. Keep us posted on what the final outcome ends up...

BradMacc82 · Jul 10, 2013

I've gotten conflicting responses so far, one clerk at the Sheriff's Office said yes, and asked if I'd like to leave my forms with her. The following day a Deputy says no and directs me to MSP.

It's time to go straight to Evans.

Hopefully you got the deputy's name too. :innocent0

Still no definitive word from Evans as of right now.

Patiently waiting, as the clock ticks away.

Calvert County CLEO - back to MSP.
