Maryland State Police has just clarified the 7-day waiting period for regulated firearms. It appears that we now have to calculate Sundays and legal holidays into the equation. We will do our best to make this change as easy as possible.
From MSP Bulletin LD-FRU-16-001 (link below):
Seven-Day Waiting Period - A regulated firearm may not be transferred until after seven days have elapsed from the time an application was forwarded to the Firearms Registration Unit. If the seventh day of the seven-day waiting period falls on a Sunday or legal holiday, the computation period shall be extended to the next following day, which is neither a Sunday nor a legal holiday.
Example: If an application is forwarded on Monday, the seventh day falls on Sunday; therefore the computation period shall be extended to Monday and the firearm cannot be legally transferred until Tuesday. If Sunday is the seventh day and Monday is a legal holiday, the computation period shall be extended to Tuesday and the firearm cannot be legally transferred until Wednesday.
