I tried that last year. My wife looked at me for a minute real hard like and said, "likely story you liar, you're either going golfing or to the gun show.".
My wife wouldn't believe it either.
Anyone going to the Va Dulles Expo gunshow?

Correct. It would have to be shipped to a MD FFL and you do your paperwork in MD as usual. Accurate Pawn from Eddlridge, MD usually is there near to front with a big sign that says "Maryland Transfers".
Keep in mind that when that show is going on, background checks for regular long guns can get delayed (happened to me twice). You may have to go back the next day to pick up your new item if NICS gets overwhelmed and your check comes back "delayed".
Correct - see above. You pay the seller and they have to transfer it to your MD FFL for all the paperwork.

When I was here, they had Maryland FFLs there to handle the tranfers, with big signs over their tables right in the middle of the floor.

Both the Radom TTC (Pol Tok) and their P64 are currently very good buys in the low $200 range. The Polish Tokarev variant is absolutely one of my favorites, and the Romanian variant is a close second. Lots of people like the Yugo best because it has a larger magazine, but that just doesn't appeal to me. I don't need the extra rounds, the magazines will be harder to find (more costly), and the longer handgrip just gets in my way. Besides that, I've driven a Yugo car ... so hard to have faith in their workmanship.
(Edit: I still got one, just to fill in the hole in my Tok. series.)The Radom P64 fires a Makarov round, but isn't really a Makarov. It's much closer to the Walther PPk ... and that's a GOOD thing! It's a military-designed pistol that was used by some police. That said, it's a compact, snarling, little beast that it fun to shoot and can be very accurate for its size and packs a big punch. Research on this one will quickly turn up info about hard trigger pulls in DA (and very responsive SA pulls), but it will also show that the fix is cheap and easy. A thorough cleaning and spring replacement (search for Wolf springs) makes a difference. You may want to buy the variety pack that Wolf sells, so that you can swap out spring strengths to find the combo that suits you. Info for doing this swap is online. It's a bit of a pain, if you don't have three hands, but read multiple articles, have a punch handy (or make one from a nail), and resist the temptation to toss it into a sack in the back of your closet. You can do this.
Another C&R firearm (used by military and some police) that you may want to take a look at is the CZ-82. It has the excellent advantage of being fully ambidextrous, shoots very well, and fits your hand like a glove. Your buddies who want new guns should look at this one first ... they may change their minds. It's a really sweet shooter that you can CC.

You need to check with us on here before you go places to make sure they are open and exist.

What were their rates like? I assume they would take your purchase back to MD, and you get to pickup the following weekend?

The stuff I bought was cash and carry, so no first-hand experience. But I was talking to several vendors about handguns, told them all I was from MD, and none of them said they had a problem dealing with it. My understanding of the way the MD FFL thing worked is that they can handle a transfer from any of the VA vendors - they work it out between them there at the show. $50 is about right. Not that high considering what most MD FFLs charge.

As long as they'll sell to them, as was previously posted there are several vendors that hear MD and tell you to go away
