Its May - Time for annual MSP registration of your machine guns

[TheTruth]

Just a reminder...

The website still has the 2011 form on it. I have crossed the old year and put on the correct year in the past without issue.

I got my form in the mail already. Looks like they took John J's (AGC LVP) version with the blank for the year and filled in the year by hand.

Thanks! I have had them send in the past and not in others. IIRC, they did send out forms last year. I am not far from you - maybe mine will show up tomorrow.

I'm sure SCARCQB will need the week off.

+1. Got mine last week. Already filled out and mailed.

Mine came on Monday, with the year covered in white-out and 2012 written in.

Last year I scaned the pdf file into Accrobat and made the blanks fillable. This year all I had to do is change the year at the top and for the signature date. Mine was mailed certified return reciept and return copy yesterday.

Would you be willing to post a copy on here that we can download? That would be a handy pdf file, especially if you can save the input data.

The PDFs on the listed MSP website have fillable blanks, but I don't know if they can be saved.

The annual registration form doesn't seem to let me fill in any blanks. Can you share one that does that?

I just downloaded the ones at the MSP link (in the first post) to my Linux, Windows and Mac boxes. Both files are fillable on the Mac (with Preview), but not on the Linux box. On my Windows box they're not even fillable with Acrobat Pro.

Looks like it's a Mac feature.

I use Nuance PDF Reader to fill in forms on .PDF files. It is free and I've used it on a couple XP and Windows 7 systems.

+1 this is what I did too. Just change the date.

Anybody with a Trust know how you are supposed to register it? Like in your name or the trusts name?

What constitutes a machine gun?

 

[IMBLITZVT]

What constitutes a machine gun?

A gun that goes BANG, BANG when you pull the trigger once.

A gun that goes BANG when you pull the trigger once is Semi Auto or slower.

That is in the state of MD.

For the ATF, it would be the above and/or just the receiver of a gun that if full operational goes BANG, BANG.

Good explaination. Are you available for firearms training and operation at kids parties?

Yeah I did not know exactly how to take that question. It was a very general question where most would ask a little more detailed question as most have a general idea of what a MG is. So I gave a fun but true answer.

To answer your question yes, and I use a Paintball gun and shoot the kids with paintballs in FA and SA modes until they get it. They pick it up quick!

ericoak, register everything with MDSP in your name. To the best of my knowledge there is still no provision for a trust & I continually inquire regarding collectables.


On a different note, as always I'm late to the forum & never at the range but for those could use it here is a pdf folks can hopefully fill out, save & re-use as time progresses (if I got it correct). I chopped this one down to 3 pages & edited the replications I had to unique values but please check it to make sure what you enter doesn't carry over to other lines or pages.

If anyone notices an issue with it let me know asap & I'll correct it this weekend.

Happy registrations
