30 day wait

[wizzer368]

When does the 30 day wait start after buying a pistol? I don't have collectors status, and bought a gun pistol november 14th and need to transfer another one. Any ideas is it starts the day a filled out the paperwork or 7 days later when I physically got the pistol? Thanks in advance

the day you get the gun. Im waiting on two hand guns.

You know, if you're waiting on two handguns, you may as well just fill out the collector's permit and save yourself a month... they get approved pretty quick.

 

[JnstemIII]

I was told three months by the dealer. Not to high jack your thread buddy. Where do i get a permit.

 

[Stein79]

How much is a collectors permit and what are the stipulations??

 

[JnstemIII]

10 Bucks. No 30 day wait. I think thats it.

 

[Stein79]

No requirements on how many or how often you have to buy a piece?

The MD Collectors affadavit is free, but has to be notarized, and sent in the mail.

its free and most banks will notorize for free if you have account there, got my collector status 3 weeks after applying and its already been used as i got a ruger sr9 and then a stripped lower reciever within a week of each other

This and my C&R have put a serious dent in my wallet the past few months!

 

[Stein79]

Ok so I'm finding this hard to believe. What's the catch? Why doesn't everyone do this.

 

[sbmike]

No catch, believe it or not. Just another example of the ridiculous laws of this state, which in this case works in our favor.

Having a designated collectors permit also allows you to transport your firearms to show your collection.

Some people don't want to get any higher on the state's radar

ok tell him the Maryland difference between a std profile and an hbar ar-15.

the day you get the gun. Im waiting on two hand guns.

That's not what the law says, it says from the DAY OF PURCHASE... You wait after the purchase, but the law doesn't state from the day of transfer.

No, being a Bonafide collector does... you DO NOT NEED a designated collectors permit... although that would be one indication that you are indeed a collector (as would a large collection or the holding of an FFL-03)

Ok thanks so from the day of purchase, To avoid this in the future I just submitted the application for the collectors status Thanks
