Disapproved

[Markp]

I am so thankful that MD approves "Most" of it's handgun license requests... LMAO.

What a mess... This sucks... Same shit, different day. The state wants to control you, and only can because you follow the rules... Be like any common thug in Baltimore, and you can conceal carry anytime you want... why, because the rules don't matter to criminals.

So what is stopping you from just carrying? The consequences, law abiding citizens actually have something to lose... but is it more important than their lives or their freedom?

I can see them now....

"Oh, crap. They're actually sending responses. FK!!! We have to count these... What to approve??? If I don't see G&S do I really know it? I mean... maybe it's the other way around...

"MOMmy!!!!!"

Welp... Got a letter from MDSP today...

Felt the envelope and there was something plastic inside...

Got my permit!

Restrictions: "Valid only between residence (my office) or while actively involved in financial business tractions as a Physician for same."

Sounds like it's only good to/from my office or when making deposits. The fact that I'm on call 24/7 (I'm in solo practice) or that I prescribe controlled drugs and always have an Rx pad with me matters not?

Yay?

Do I ask for clarification, or possibly appeal for less less restrictions?

Talk about a hollow victory...

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for.



Good letter Big Dog. I think this tact is our best shot.

I kinda tried this a few years ago during the appeal,the trooper laughed and said I could file a FOIA, but would not provide any details.

Of course there were no details...

Jamie, I got mine yesterday. My restriction states the exact same thing. My question is as a contractor my job site moves weekly sometimes daily so can I carry to any job site or at night when I am out giving estimates to customers

 

[Mr H]

Forgot...

Nothing here Saturday.

Now I really start to wonder.

I heard they're thing up action on anyone who bought pizza in Annapolis.

What?

 

[MJD438]

What?

I took the quoted post as just a humorous stab at the current example of the arbitrary and capricious nature of the MSP G&S standards (IOW - why have only a handful of us received denials while others are still in the "no current action" pile).

 

[Straightshooter]

What?

If you were there, you would know.

 

[Chowda69]

Is everyone receiving their disapproved and or appeal notices from the same trooper ?? ( Trooper K*****)

If so, be careful with him. I had an awful experience with him. Not sure what his problem was, but he did answer emails, phone calls ....The one time I did get him on the phone, he was very dismissive and couldnt wait to get off the phone. I was nothing but polite and professional and he would not answer my questions regarding "former police" .....told me my training was worthless, and i needed 5 years of experience. He then told me that he was busy and didnt have time for my questions. ( he seem to have some chip on his shoulder)
After several follow up calls and emails, in which he did not respond, i called the LT of the permit group , in which he had to apologize for his troopers behavior, stating in so many words, that this was not the first time. However, the LT said that I had 5 years separation of service, and what had changed ?? So i told him that i had been in Afraqistan and could not apply. He mumbled something about '' nothing changing", and refused to answer why they have the former police officer section on the application if they think everyone is worthless.

Trooper K**** is also the guy that got fed up with my questions and told me to file a freedom of information act, because he was not gonna answer anything about the criteria when looking at applications.

Ok im starting to get sweaty and angry just thinking about this interview at the barracks ...so im gonna stop. ha

Why only a handful have received denials has my curiousity as well. Pumped some out, then seemed to have stopped. Puzzled!

Was wondering this as well.

Should make for an interesting time at the Review Board, if nothing else!!!

The MSP has stated that they have lumped the applications into three piles.

The applicants that they felt have no G&S at all, got the request for more info.

I wouldn't appeal for fewer restrictions if you can justify that you are "always working." I'm submitting my permit tomorrow since I am a partially disabled business owner. I would like for it to say that I can only carry my firearm when I'm going to or from the bank or when I am carrying over $1000 dollars. I will write myself a deposit slip every day and take my gun everywhere with $1000 in my wallet. Sounds silly, but at that point, anyone who tries to take my $1000 is going to leave with more orifices than they started with.

 

[Straightshooter]

Posting "what I'll do to skirt their restriction" is why they have reworded them. The old "while carrying business currency" will never be seen again due to these posts. Loose lips........

 

[OnTarget]

If one doesn't submit additional sufficient "G&S" information, based on the MSP standards, is it possible for the Handgun Permit Review Board to just say, "Sorry, you are not warranted a hearing?"

 

[drblast33]

Just got an email back:

Mr. Blast,

Your permit was mailed on 6-19

WOOT WOOT! I'm an active collector and own a business so I'm interested on the restrictions I will have.

 

[yellowsled]

I am not sure why anyone is excited about getting a resticted permit? Its a shallow win if at best. They seem to give those out just to silence people and say they actually issue them. I would pass on a restricted.
