C&R Handgun Question

[jmt476]

So I've been in the market for an old Romanian Tokarev 7.62x25 pistol.....I called my local FFL that I always use and asked the process to have one shipped to them. They said it was just like any other regulated firearm. Is this the case? I always thought it was treated more like a non regulated cash and carry purchase.

I don't mean to sound like a smart a$$, but how in the world did you ever come to that conclusion?

Nope, once a C&R pistol is in Maryland it's treated like any other handgun, except that you will not need an HQL to pick it up.
Now if you had a C&R license you could order it and have it sent directly to your house.

My question: If buyer has C&R and both buyer and seller are in Maryland, can they drive to PA/WV/DE/VA to do the transfer and avoid the 77R based on the buyer's C&R license?

Or, since both buyer and seller are Maryland residents, the 77R must be done regardless of where the transfer takes place?

If you have a C&R, you must maintain a "bound book" where you record your acquisitions and dispositions. The ATF is the only organization that can inspect that book. I'm not sure if the ATF is going to say anything to the MSP if you show that you transferred a C&R firearm to someone in Maryland.

That being said, you must comply with local and state laws with respect to firearm transfers.
