Not “Not disapproved” anymore?

AlBeight · Oct 3, 2018

Filled out a new 77R on the MSP Licensing Portal today. Took notice of the summary of my last 10 purchases (dates, status, etc...). Just noticed that before they were always deemed simply “not disapproved” just as the received email confirmation of pickup always states (or stated), but now 8 out of the 10 in history displayed say “initial review not disapproved”. Two still are designated plain old “not disapproved”, and not in consecutive order. When did it start saying that, and what does that mean? Each of them all said just “not disapproved” when they processed out initially.

Is there now two classifications of approval, and/or might there be something I may need to retroactively deal with going forward? Weird, methinks.

Going forward? My gawd that simple-ass phrase really gets in my crawl. There is no remaining still in time, nor going backwards...there can only be forward and saying it is redundant. Why not say instead, “later”? So’k, you’re infected by modern day fancy talk and I remain an a**hole.

...and what’s a “crawl” that stuff gets into?

I called about this. Evidently this is situation normal. I was told this is one officers "protocol." I have it more than once interspersed with the normal not disapproved. Some here have speculated that it has something to do with paperwork not coming back on time. Or a referral to the handgun roster to double check. Or designated collector check. Or that its Glocktober and you bought a revolver in violation of policy. But based on my call, no need for tinfoil. More than the usual amount that is.

Craw.

Another name for a bird's crop. Where food stays for a bit to get ground up before heading farther down the digestive system. When you've got something stuck in your craw, it's like something stuck in your throat - something you can't swallow. Which is why it's a phrase used when you have to deal with something unpleasant.

Not sure about a crawl, but a craw is the pre-stomach where many birds accumulate grit/sand/pebbles to grind the seeds they eat before passing into the stomach. Here's Merriam-Webster's definition.

Wow, someone that goes off on post # 2 to that level for zero reason should really learn the word is craw, and not “crawl”. Bad day today?

AlBeight · Oct 3, 2018

Missed that post, I did look but my search skills suck. I just thought it was weird, because every single one of the emails I’ve gotten at the end of my “cooling off period” all did say “not disapproved” like always and the gun was picked up. I only just noticed today that the web history on my portal account has the alternate wording. I never really looked at that part at all, just waited for the email approval. Thanks to all for letting me know that this isn’t an issue, and that I’m not the only one.

Yesterday was a fine day...for being an old chromogen. I accept all barbs, slings and arrows.

Occamw and Mr. Ed posting a minute apart...cool.

OP , maybe my grumpiness bumped your post. Hope it did, anyway.

Curmudgeon. We can do a whole thread on your malapropisms.

Yay, a vocabulary thread! Wait, what were we talking about?

Is there anything preventing MSP from doing a second review at any given date later in time? One layer Dan lol.

Just a guess here, but is it possible that all applications go through "initial review not disapproved" status pending final review by a sworn officer. That final reviewing officer then may then choose:

1) mark "not disapproved" allowing the firearm to be picked up at that point, or

2) not mark anything thereby allowing the full 7 day review period to run.

I have lost track of whether applicants were still receiving "not disapproved" before the full 7 days, or whether the system was automatically holding them for the full time.

Priceless!

I didn’t know how to spell it, so I spoke it into my iPhone and this is the spelling I got “chromogen”.

I would not disapprove of that since I don't know what it means.

No.

I looked it up, but I still don’t know what it means. Seemed safe to say “no”.

You guys slay me with this stuff!

You’re not supposed to wear white shoes or bare your fardels after Labor Day.
