At that point can't we just use Hilary's line. What difference does it make?

Or even msp's line. They're meeting the requirement now.

I see this as the state closing the 8th day release to whenever they feel like getting the paperwork done.

(C) NOTWITHSTANDING THE TIME PERIOD FOR DISAPPROVAL OF A FIREARM APPLICATION UNDER § 5–122 OF THIS SUBTITLE, A LICENSEE OR OTHER PERSON MAY NOT SELL, RENT, OR TRANSFER A REGULATED FIREARM TO A FIREARM APPLICANT UNTIL THE LICENSEE OR OTHER PERSON HAS RECEIVED NOTICE FROM THE SECRETARY THAT THE APPLICANT’S FIREARM APPLICATION HAS BEEN APPROVED.

Any chance you'd let MSI share that graphic with credit?

As said on the comments of the same video, Well, today I registered all 8 of my guns and all 15 of my magazines. The list of guns: 3 BB guns, 4 pellet guns, and 1 antique revolver. The magazines were GQ, People, Better Homes & Gardens, Seventeen (my daughter), Popular Science, etc. I feel much better obeying the law and all. LOL

I wonder if my screw guns, nail guns, caulk guns, and magazines containing high capacity porn would be banned?

Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum so forgive me if this has been discussed elsewhere, but I needed some help clarifying these new firearm laws...

I am being gifted a handgun from my Mother and have acquired my HQL, gone down to the station to fill out MSP 77R-1,2,3, and have waited almost 2 weeks for some kind of notification by mail.

After filling out the forms, the officer said I would need to wait for my application to be approved or denied before transferring the firearm and then fill out section 6 of 77R-2, and I've received no such correspondence! I am moving out of the state to California (where I'll need to register the handgun within 19 days of arriving) within the next week and have no idea what to do...

I've contacted the MSP Licensing division now both by phone and by email to request instructions and have received none, and I'm sitting on all these forms that I'm supposed to eventually mail out.

Does anyone know what I'm supposed to do next so I'm not breaking the law???

Thank you for any help.

P.S. It seems incredibly redundant to ask all these questions on my HQL application- BE APPROVED, and then have to wait on approval with the 77R forms for the EXACT SAME QUESTIONS! Sorry, just venting
