    I understand I may be rather impatient, but I was hoping to collect my new revolver today. I went down and completed all my paperwork last Tuesday, the 16th, however this morning, I did not receive my email, and when I logged in to check the status, I am under "Second Review".

    Has anyone seen this before? DO I just need to sit tight? I thought the 7 day wait was pretty automated, and it sent the email on the morning of the 7th day.

    Thanks.

    The last 77r I did about 2 months ago went into second review on day 7 and I got the "not disapproved" the next day. I was not happy about it. Seems the state has a backlog with all the BS going on these days.

    State of MD having IT issues? Say it ain't so. Ask anybody who tried to get unemployment benefits recently.

    Application submitted May 11, "not disapproved" on May 19. I take the 7 day wait to mean starting the following day of submission.
    This is the way it has always worked for me. Not Disapproved email always received at 6:00am on the 8th day including the day I did the paperwork at the FFL.

    Interesting tidbit from the MSP portal! Damn they must be swamped with 77R’s!!!

THE MD STATE POLICE LICENSING DIVISION ENCOURAGES REGULATED FIREARMS DEALERS (RFD) NOT TO TRANSFER THESE FIREARMS UNTIL BACKGROUNDS CHECKS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED; HOWEVER, SHOULD THE RFD ELECT TO EXERCISE THEIR STATUTORY OPTION TO RELEASE THE FIREARM ON THE 8TH DAY, THE RFD SHALL COMPLY WITH THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN ADVISORY LD-FRU-20-002 WHICH CAN BE LOCATED IN THE DOCUMENTS SECTION OF THE REGULATED FIREARMS DEALERS PAGE OF THE MD STATE POLICE LICENSING DIVISION WEBPAGE.

    The last time I bought was a year ago, and I got the email at 6am on the 7th day. Tuesday-Tuesday.

    Mine submitted on 18th is the same. I think kind of a suspension due to the IT issues. Tuesday to Tuesday is seven days, first Tuesday is ‘ground zero’. At least that is how it usually worked out for me.

    Does the gov count hours or days? Honestly, I don't see the big sweat over a day. On the eighth day, you should get a "not disapproved". Having waited seven days, the notice should land on the eighth day.
    I admit, it's been a while for me...


    We wait up to a year for NFA decisions.
