Yes. Same CLEO sign off procedure as a Form 4.
Suggest those who are engaging in calling names chill out if they want to stay here. It's not going to be tolerated.

I am guessing is to avoid theft and fraud plus it leaves more of a paper trail.
And not to be combative but, you will go to all the trouble to fill out the forms and get finger printed but going to the post office is a big deal?

Makes me feel great that we are worried about minor amounts of money being stolen OUT OF THE POLICE STATION! But you are probably right!

First, its the point of it. If you own a business or do a service and refuse cash, you void any debt owed to you!
Second, its not the going to the post office but the call to the police to make sure I get the correct amount on the MO. God knows if I just get it at the $18, it will go up a buck this time or I will have remembered it wrong. Its just one more PITA thats unconstitutional to begin with!

FYI,
If you are dealing with one dealer on your NFA items, then it is an $18 fee to MSP. This can be for one Form 4(or Form 1), or ten of them......still $18. Also only requires only 1 purple fingerprint card.
If you are dealing with multiple dealers, it is an $18 fee PER dealer. And YOU count as a dealer if you are doing a Form 1 yourself. You also need 1 purple fingerprint card per dealer.
For Example
If you were doing all of these at one time with MSP:
Silencer from Dealer A
Machine Gun from Dealer B
SBR on a Form 1 yourself
MSP requires 3 purple fingerprint cards and $54 Check or MO made payable to MSP. Along with 2 copies of each of your forms of course.

Haha, funny you say that... I did almost exactly that one time except the MG and Suppressor were from the same guy and not a dealer (In state) and the SBR was from a dealer...
Yes been there a few times at this point... I got the process down, thanks.
This was really intended for the education of those new to NFA.
I'm WELL aware that this "ain't your first rodeo". I'll see you at our next MD TCA meeting and FA shoot at AGC this Spring.

Did any of us read the state law or are we going to rely on the Internet to tell us the law?
I suggest before ANYONE states that something is legal or illegal that they know the specific statute that covers the act. If you have not read the law or understand the law, you really don't have a leg to stand on.
I see too much of this, "I think that you have to do x in order to have y." where the person hasn't even taken the time to look up the statutes involved.

Now that's a good source for info - the MSP - NOT

Rich, forgot that was you. Yeah I will catch you soon!
Its not really in the law. Plus we are in MD so a lot of the time it does not even matter that much... Most of us have gone through the law but a lot of things are still unclear!
