Correct. I didn't understand the point of publishing it, but it's not my job to understand MSP.

Was the app put on hold by MSP?
Correct, unless the 7th day was Sunday. Same as its always been.
Never read it before.
Does it literally mention the days?. Seems to clear up any confusion about transfer day. Pickup day should be the same as the day of the week that paperwork is submitted. I've had an ffl or two tack on an extra day.

Well slap my balls and call me Charles...
I'm gonna point that out the next time an ffl tells me to wait 9 days...
;D

An extremely generous offer, but I'm covered.

Can we just do away with it if you already own a gun? This is the dumbest thing ever for people who already own firearms.
It's a "cooling off period", same as in any other Liberal-run principality or duchy. Reality has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's an answer in search of a question, as usual.

For the same reason that every now and then... Norton issues one of his "reminders" to the gen pop of the MDS.
Reading too much into it can cause needless panic and butthurt... Simply heeding the warning brings some folks back to reality and reminds them that they are getting too close to the edge. Just MAYBE... the MDSP has noticed a loose trend in the works... and is calling attention to it rather than whacking someones twig and berries.
A wake up call of sorts if you will...
that's a rule of procedure that governs court proceedings. I don't think it applies to this public safety statute.

one would think doing and waiting for the HQL would count as cooling off period.
Not cooling off period. It's so they have time to redo the checks. Checks themselves only take a few minutes (if everything is working), but they compensate for backlog, holidays, employee attendance, etc. 7 days was created back when things were all done by fax. Much faster now a days.
I agree, you you have an HQL or are exempt, have purchased a gun ~recently, etc why make people wait? If they do the check and find someone is prohibited (rare), then theirs an issue. Don't punish everyone every time because there's a mistake now and then.

Virginia had a 'cooling off period' it was 10 days. Then they said, this is ridiculous, and they dropped it. No wait in VA.

Your state police have WAY too much power. So now they can make-up laws on their own? Swell.

I was in Duffy's around 11am Fri when they got the email.......they were all shrugging shoulders. Probably in anticipation of short staffing on top of incompetence issues with that particular division....

It's jus' the same ol' shit, different year. On average, almost every other year MSP L&R comes out with this same thing or the other part of it as reminders, when the final part of the transfer is completed, 77R signed for the final time and customer/purchaser takes possession of the regulated firearm, the seller must return the original white copies of the 77R ensemble back to MSP L&R within 7 days after transfer of firearm. I've been in this business over 30 years and this same ol' shit is nothing new.

I feel so much safer now! Yippy!
I disagree: "In computing any period of time prescribed by these rules, by rule or order of court, or by any applicable statute..."
This is the default method of calculating time unless the statute specifies a different manner.
