i thought certain crimes in MD were not elgible for expungement?
maybe the case?
maybe the case?
Story sounds off. MSP no longer handles shotguns, thats 4473 territory. Handguns require a HQL UNLESS he tried to buy a C&R or is a retired U.S. Military and is HQL exempt.
If he has a HQL then something is off.
OP could be confused about MSP denying twice, this is thirdhand info, or dad could have tried buying a variant (IE Mossy bullpup or Spas 12). Or could have tried to buy pistol first get denied then tried to buy a shotgun and assumed it was MSP denying both.
Having the HQL means nothing, several cases of MSP issuing them to prohibited persons.
C&R only comes into play if he has an FFL03 and bought out of state as C&R handguns still go through the 77R and MSP LD.
C&R Handguns can be purchased on a 77r without a HQL.No C&R needed. Its right on the 77r

He was able to obtain the HQL in 2014.
Supposedly you do...Do you have to go through a background check to get an HQL?
There are too many omissions & inconsistency in the OP's story for anyone to be able to figure out the problem. The best advice was: request the NICS rejection information.
My experience has been that many folks who appear in court get so much confusing information in a short period of time that they are unable to understand/remember the details. Once the official reason is shown to him, everything will become clear.
In the meantime, I believe that anyone suggesting that the OP lend his father a gun is doing both of them, & members of this forum, a disservice. We protest injustice only by legal means.
Sorry all for bringing out the worst advice givers on the forum. Working on getting the NICS rejection appeal form figured out.
Oh, you are that guy.
