Hi all! I have a few questions regarding purchasing C&R eligible firearms. (Assume all the firearms I am talking about here are C&R eligible.) I have my C&R license, HQL, and MD DL (I do NOT have MD Collectors License...yet!). I'm also new to MD, so please bear with me! Thanks
So I was thinking about attending an auction up in PA next weekend, looking for some C&R finds. I understand it would be perfectly legal to purchase multiple non-regulated C&R firearms and have them shipped to my location by the FFL in PA (as long as s/he is willing). However, could I just transfer them there in PA to myself after purchasing? Would there be a wait time? I'd suppose I would be obtaining the firearms from an FFL, so I would need to fill out a 4473 and that would necessitate the 7-day wait period.
Now, I have similar questions if the firearms are regulated (handguns). Can I purchase multiple handguns and have them shipped to my location by the FFL in PA (assuming s/he is willing)? Or do I need a MD Collector's License if I want to purchase multiple (I thought the CL was only for MD intrastate purchases?)? In addition to a 4473, would the FFL also have to fill out a 3310? If I wanted, could I transfer these firearms to myself in PA instead of shipping them to MD? Do I need my HQL at all for these kind of purchases?
And one last question, would any of this change if I somehow hear back from the MSP this week regarding the approval of my MD Collectors License?
Thank you for your patience! I really appreciate it.
