I'm not aware of any cases where the unemployed were denied a purchase for being unemployed. Are there any? I doubt it, but wouldn't be surprised.
If they returned the guy's 77R because "self employed" wasn't good enough, I have no doubt that "unemployed" would be returned too.
Maybe we could find someone who's unemployed to find out?
Unemployed is an ok answer which makes the question seem even more ridiculous
Agree that occupation is not relevant but it is required under Maryland Law. In case anyone cares here is a link to the MDSP advisory about what is required.
LD-FRU-20-006 77R Occupation Field
LD-FRU-20-006 77R Occupation Field
I'm betting they'll bounce that too and wanr something specific like plumber, truck driver, etc
I mean, when you strip anyone down, isn't that what they are at their core?
The point is, they are going after demographic information. Not banning you because your job is disfavored or something. They don't want to know self-employed. They want to know IT consultant. Or corner drug dealer. Or whatever.
Okay, one of those might get them to deny you. Yeah, I think it is kind of stupid too.
Bruen doesn’t have anything to do with it, it had no business being on the 77R application to begin with.

I think only one person mentioned there is no card anymore. Like no plastic card you wait for in the mail. The first ones had your picture from the MVA, then it was no picture, now I thought it was just an email with your number.
The dumb thing (among many) is that I believe if you have a physical card, you need to present it to your FFL (mine asks for it). But if you are one of the email only HQL people, you don't need to present anything.
Also, the online 77r is one of the few helpful (I guess) things the MSP has done. I usually have a couple done and just sitting there for future use. So when you go in to purchase, it's already done from your side. Bonus are FFLs that have electronic 4473s which is the Fed form you fill out on a laptop. I hate having to fill out a form by hand. My handwriting sucks and it's stressful for me lol.
Also OP, submit for your designated collector letter now. Then you don't have to worry about the 30 day thing and once you have it and fill out a 77r online once with that checked, it's there for the next one.
ETA: Don't do the designated collector request until you have made at least one 77r purchase. Seems like that has caused folks issues.

Yes, this is a prerequisite.
“Are there any prerequisites to request for a Designated Collector status?
Yes. An applicant requesting a Designated Collector status must have a minimum of one (1) regulated firearm currently registered with the Maryland State Police.”

Ah. OK cool. Thanks. I waited way too long to do it so I didn't really think or worry about any official prerequisites.
I would also suggest getting notarized at an FFL that does it. I went to my bank and while the guy was cool, he had never seen one before and had questions that I really didn't feel like answering. Not bad, he seemed genuinely interested but I didn't really want to answer too many questions about it with a stranger...
I went to a bank. The only down side was them making sales pitches for loans and accounts while they were signing/stamping. They didn’t ask anything about the document.
Before the mandatory wait is up? No.
Tuesday
Your ffl will see it Friday or Monday cleared in their account with Tuesdays release date.
