I'm pretty sure he means for the HQL.
The 'not disapproved' will be exactly 7 days.
I need MD handgun-transfer advice...

Yeah. I did 4 years, but not officially retired.
It does say "Veteran" on my "Super Secure" MD Driver's License though...

No getting around you ( the OP )needing an HQL in any case to recieve the Glock 21 . ( C&R eligible gun is different story .)
You have the training exemption . The HQL fee itself is $50 , plus the electronic fingerprinting is at your expense ,typically$50- 75 .

Update:
A lot of life happened after I wrote in these posts. But I went into The MSP barracks
a few weeks ago and asked for the forms to transfer the Glock 21 from my father to me, his son. I wanted to jump through the ridiculous hoops.
The SGT at the desk said that the forms are online only.
He said that I would need to bring my dad to the barracks.
I told him that my father just turned 93 and that it would not be possible to do that.
He asked me if anyone would contest the transfer of the firearm. I said "No."
(I think he was asking if someone else might claim the gun?)
He asked if this would be a purchase. I said "No." I told him that I already had possession of the Glock since he can't use it but we used to use it together at the range.
I told him that I was an Army veteran and owned a different handgun that I legally purchased in Maryland previously.
He mentioned that he was a veteran as well
He said that since I am not legally prevented from possessing a handgun, there is no physical transfer and no monetary sale....
Just let it be.
I guess he thinks that no one will make a legal fuss.

Remember our saying here that if you ask ten Troopers the same question , you'll get fifteen different answers ? You just witnessed it in action .

I’m sure the folks in LD would have some different answers. Trooper at the desk in the barracks is probably not qualified to provide legal advice on this topic.
The only MD State Police advice I would take on handgun transfers would be from the Licensing Division, Firearms Registration Section itself.
What handgun?

The OP should look into a W&C permit, then the HQL is free and included. Easy solution.
Included? I thought you still had to apply for HQL after you got the HGP No? But just did not need any extra training that the HGP training covered what was needed for HQL

Included in the sense that you don’t have to get the HQL prints, you don’t have to pay, take any class, or generally wait more than a day or so to get it. Once you have the W&C.
Correct, applying is all that must be done.

It sounds like the Trooper's advice amounted to, "Wink, wink, nudge, nudge." I was thinking the same thing as I read this thread. I imagine the Licensing Division might have a more complicated perspective.
However I understand Maryland does not put a time limit on loans of handguns. Isn't the gun now on indefinite loan, and isn't that legal? At some point, it will become a matter of inheritance.
I know these laws might seem absurdly burdensome, but isn't it a small price to pay to live in a crime-free Utopia?

Yeah! I got the "wink, wink" vibe myself. That's why I posted. Like you said, some
lawyers may have a different perspective, but the Glock is on permanent loan and, at some point, will be inherited by me. It has been in my possession for a decade or more and I am not ineligible to own a handgun in MD and there has been no payment to transfer ownership of the gun.
The only things that have been harmed by the weapon have been paper targets.
At worst, do the inheritance forms for the 77r online once it becomes that. IIRC you don't need to go to the barracks for that. It is effectively a voluntary registration (except you are supposed to do it, so not really "voluntary")
There is no “registered to you”
What is there then? Is it just registered or not?
