Any chance you'll be there Sunday as well?

The only "disadvantage" of purchasing more than one firearm in a single transaction, is that the FFL MUST notify ATF of the transaction and ATF will then hold record of the transaction. Otherwise (one firearm/transaction), the dealer holds the paperwork, the NCIC check is deleted after 24 hours, and "only" Maryland MSP has the "voluntary" registration of your firearm (which they keep forever and use it to populate their GIS mapping database with the location of all registered weapons in the state as well as the ID's of all CCW licensee's).

That all may be true, but if their is any reason to be concerned who has a record of a gun you bought is the state police and not the ATF. if we in Maryland ever have real problems with our guns it will be because Maryland will out law the ownership of firearms not the ATF. It's the states that come up with the very restrictive laws, not the feds.
They will figure it out someway anyways.........who hasnt done pistol paperwork at least once in the last couple years.
What do you think will happen someday when the FFLs start turning their books in.
Recordation is a fact of life I fear.
Not planning on it - you need a Notary? I have a event I have to be to at 2:00 but may be able to help you out before or after that.
Send me an email
Had no idea ATF was notified. Where did you get that information?
I need to become a MD designated collector.
Will you be at any other shows I have printed out the paper and filled it out but live pretty far from the show.
I need to become a MD designated collector. I shoot at a friends farm and have always wondered what happens if I get stopped for forgetting a turn signal or something stupid. This would make it legit. Nice.

If you are going to an "informal target practice" you are already covered. In fact, even if you are NOT, just say you are. Who's duty is it to prove you are commiting a crime?
This 'Designated Collector" for Maryland, is that the same as a C&R?
What does that get me? Other than buying more than one regulated firearm at a time. Still have waiting period right?

Here is the downloadable form unless you already have some printed up.

What could/should I put down under "Describe nature of collecting activities" section of the form?
