exactly. belive me you filled one out.
You don't get copies of the 4473, the gun dealer keeps the the only copy that you fill out.
Federal:
4473 is the white paper you fill personal info in, Yes/No to a bunch of questions and open up and sign inside.
Maryland:
77r is yes/no with initials. Multiple pages of Pink
The mental health is the other white one side piece of paper you fill personal info on.
Like I said, "I" have not filled one of these out...they must do it, and I sign it...I looked on ATF site to see what it looked like.
I see your point now, about 2 trips...maybe the same FFL's who have always filled mine out in the past, will still do it? Making only 1 trip needed?
Regardless, I am picking a new gun Monday, and possibly another BEFORE 12/31, and then will sit back and watch the show. I want mine bought and home BEFORE 1/1/17
I certify that my answers to Section A are true, correct, and complete.
According to a post in a similar thread, the barracks will use the same system. They have desktops.

This 77Re may take a while to understand. But it's not super complicated. The MSP invited me to one of their dealer training seminars recently. I was thoroughly impressed with the work that has gone into this. The buying of a handgun in Maryland is one of the most complicated puzzles I have ever seen. I asked a ton of questions. I was satisfied with every answer. This is not the typical database you would see from a state agency. It is up and ready to go now. The MSP delayed the start because they didn't want dealers to have to learn a new system while managing the usual increased Christmas sales. January was an easier time for the dealers. I think people will be generally happy with the finished product. Not everyone will like it. Yes, you the buyer, will need an email address. You will be able to create an online account. You the buyer will be able to check your account after the dealer has submitted the application and you can check the progress of the application. I see this as the step we need to rid those of the 7 day wait. If you already have an hql or you already own a firearm and the msp can do a check within 10 minutes after receipt of the application, then why would you need a "cooling off period?" The 9th circuit over turned a 10 day wait for the same thing. Also, federal law allows for a state with an HQl to waive the nics check. You could buy a gun with just an hql only if MD used this system to its full potential. But you would have to convince a legislature filled with Democrats to make that change. But it could save millions of dollars in manpower.
