Wait period question

[chillman]

If I order a new gun does the background check and waiting period start at the time when it is ordered or when the gun is in stock at the dealer? I'm just wondering if I order a gun that takes a month to get will I have to wait another possible month after it comes in or will the process possibly be done when it comes in.

The process starts when the firearm arrives at your FFL and you go and fill out the paperwork. Then the wait for a regulated firearm, I'm assuming it's regulated since you mentioned the wait. If its not regulated then they will just do a 4473 and a phone call for approval.

I THINK IF THE DEALER HAS THE SER.NO HE CAN SUBMIT THE PAPERWORK.

And your 30 days until you can purchase another begins when you pick your firearm up. Even if your mandatory 7 days was 30 days.

All the more reason to fill out the "mother may I" MD Designated Collector application. Cost is a trip to a notary and a stamp.
