Ok great....do by any chance know what the process was. Did he have to go in person and show proof of the expungement.
I have a clean record now...I had a misdemeanor expunged last year that occurred back in 1996. That was the only thing that could have caused gun purchase denial back in 2005. I never looked into why I was denied back then. But it seems the only reason DC denied my CCW was because of my attempt to purchase and the denial back in 2005. Not sure how to move forward with appeal.
One of my relatives had an expungement done some time ago. She found out years later that although the record had been cleared locally the circuit court had not forwarded the order to the FBI. I'd check with the circuit court where the court order was done to make sure that they followed up the the FBI.
Just found I was denied because I tried to buy a firearm back 2005 in Maryland and was denied. I have since got records expunged and I was able to get a Maryland HQL. Can this denial be appealed.

They’re only saying I was denied because they seen that I got denied in 2005 when I tried to purchase a firearm
FYI you have 15 days to appeal, they could deny your appeal if done in less than 15 days and require you to reapply, be denied again and appealI submitted application on 10/21/19....denial letter was generated 1/14/20
I do not know the appeal process, but it probably depends on what they found in MD.
