    I’ve been in a few times since March - I’ve never seen anything like it. Their inventory is pretty wiped out on both sides of the store.

    Not state law, it's a Montgomery County law. There is a reason most of us make wisecracks about MC, and it's not just this.


    Thanks. I thought there was a holding period for all pawn shops and consignments across the state - for the same reason. To run SNs and make sure the gun isn’t stolen. Maybe MC’s time period is just longer? With all the illegal guns around, I actually don’t mind this sort of regulation. Of course, 3 weeks to run a SN is a stupid long amount of time for doing a simple computer lookup.

    An FFL is not a pawn shop. However, a pawn shop can be an FFL. You are mixing up two different industries, much like MOCO. Yes, if you pawn something there is a wait to make sure it isnt stolen. This isnt a pawn, it is a consignment.

    Mixing them up quite deliberately in MoCo’s case, I’d say. They haven’t been able to completely shut down all gunshops in the county, so they have come up with as many ways as they can to make business difficult for the shops.

    All the more reason I keep buying and selling through my LGS friends even when it’s a little more expensive and less convenient.

    Because #FUMoCo, that’s why!

    They do the same thing at Guitar Center in Rockville. Used instruments and electronics are held for (30??) days before they can be sold.

    That makes sense. I wasn’t mixing up FFL and pawn. But I was confusing pawn and consignment. While similar, they are clearly different. Thanks for the clarification.

    I really wish the consignment were posted online. I'd love to see whats on offer without having to go in the store.

    United tries to post the consignment wall in pictures every so often, they've just been slammed lately as have all local gun stores. I was over at Hafer's in Hagerstown picking up some powder, primers, and projectiles late last week. It was jam-packed with people. I was the only one in there NOT buying a firearm. I'm sure United has been the same. If you go a few pages back, you'll see some of their most recent consignment wall pictures. Not sure what's still there, but if that Fox double they had up there is still hanging around in the next couple of weeks, I'll likely swing by and snatch it up soon.

    Ha, they are selling stuff before they can take pictures, let alone post them on‐line!
