I've done many transfers at msp barracks....of course regular hours, and not during rush hours.... not during morning or evening, that is their busiest times.
i've had a trooper decline to do a transfer on the grounds that he had no idea what he was doing and the trooper who was well-versed in transfers would be back in an hour, so come back then.Do not accept any answer that handgun transfers are only done on certain days or certain hours. Be firm and tell the troopers that you understand that this registration available at all hours, (except when they are overwhelmed with an on-going operation like a vehicle pursuit that demands the dispatcher's full attention.)

...seemed reasonable enough to wait.
Question I have been wondering about. I have never done a transfer at the MSP. The dealers require a 4473 to be filled out as well. Does the MSP?
Is there a thread with the step-by-step for doing an MSP barracks handgun transfer? I've done a fair few post-MDFSA2013 handgun transfers, but always at a gun shop.
I would think anytime. Just stop in and let theofficerTROOPER on duty know what your doing and explain that all the paperwork is completed its just the exchange in the parking lot.
I assumed you wanted to go to thepolice stationBARRACK for security reasons.
Aren't all troopers trained on the new procedure (sic), therefore he should have done the transfer.
Why would they? There might be a Detective SGT or 2 there at any given time, and they are in their office working and not "manning a desk". A barrack Commander is not going to do it. So you might get a road Trooper who stopped in for something and relieved the "desk guy" for a few minutes to go run out real quick. Nothing wrong with that.
You think you can just flag a Trooper down on the side of the road, ask him to meet you at a barrack and do paperwork?
Did you read the advertisement from MSP, stating all of their troopers will be trained on the new system?
LOL sure. I have been trained on crap that I never had to do before and would be better that someone else did it.
Never had to do any "online training" before have you? You think they actually scheduled Troopers into physical classrooms and "trained them up"? LOL
this was prior to the new procedure, admittedly, and i wouldn't argue with you then or now. but in the moment, it wasn't really worth the debate.Aren't all troopers trained on the new procedure (sic), therefore he should have done the transfer.
All,
Went to the Glen Burnie Barracks by the airport Royal Farms. Arrived at 7:30pm, gave the information on the 77R Online submission and PIN, DL and HQL along with CC for payment, seller brought in the firearm after being told to do so by officer. Process took 15 minutes since we were the only ones in the Barracks. We were done by 7:45pm. Trooper was polite, and quick. Definitely a good experience.
Q
I have done several transfers at the Glen Burnie Barracks and all of them went very smooth. It is my preferred MSP barracks to do MSP transfers.
I have had mixed results at Golden Ring and Waterloo barracks.
I've been looking for this info. Thanks for posting it!No. Just 77R. Dealer typically does a 4473 to hold onto the gun during the wait period (or as a formality for entering the gun transfer into their ATF logbook). MSP does not hold onto the gun, the seller does.
