    Even if they are, they're going to have you fill out a 77r and you'll have to wait 7 days to pick it up, so why not just buy it at their shop in MD since you'll have to go there to pick it up anyway?

    I thought the MSP said that stipped lowers need a 77r but no 7 day wait?

    There are no MD dealers at the Nations Gun Show? They could very easily sell to an MD resident right?

    MD Dealers at VA shows cannot sell any firearms since they are out of state. The only way they can legally do that is take orders or have a VA dealer there with a supply of pre-show transferred firearms. These must be registered to the VA dealer prior to the show. Then the VA dealer can transfer to out of state buyer, but only rifles and shotguns. Out of state buyers cannot buy lowers, pistols out of state regardless. The Federal License stops at the state borders. This is BS but that is the way it is.

    The Chantilly show isn't worth it for me. Admission fee, a bit of a drive, overpriced items, vendors being extra wary of dealing with Marylanders(my personal experience). I try to support gun shows and events whenever I can but I have been losing interest lately.

    I do Chantilly on occasion. Bought guns, even - but had them transfered through a MD dealer. The big attraction has been buying magazines.

    Accurate Pawn goes and he said he is going. You can do transfers through him I recall for stuff legal in MD.

    I did not know that. :(

    But what about Gun Show Loopholes :sarcasm:

    I got a CZ82 with C&R license in December and primers in March.

    I will probably go looking for bits and pieces of stuff, maybe even pick up some bullets, tokarev reloading dies, and any other various and sundry stuff.

    A second cz82 is on my list, but don't know if I'll find anything in very good condition for the right price.

    Not sure if I will be able to go. I spent my spare money for the month at Precision Firearms' booth at the Howard County Gun Show this past weekend. I would consider going for the reloading powder, but the last time I went if you wanted any you had to buy the same price amount of other merchandise from the powder vendor first. He didn't have anything I wanted other than powder.

    Am at a work conference a stone's throw from the expo center.

    Gonna be a long afternoon... Maybe I'll ride out the traffic situation back to the PRM later by seeing what they still sell in 'Murica. :)

    Anyone going today? I will be there when the doors open. I'm am not even going to look at guns because I don't want to get upset when they start on the sorry you are from maryland I can't see that to you. I want to go and look at some accessories and be able to put them in my hands before buying.
    I will be wearing a project Appleseed shirt so say hi if you see me there. It's always nice to put a face with the screen name.
