What's the procedure of buying a rifle in Maryland

[Tool]

Does the rifle have to be sent to a FFL?

Do I need to fill out a 77R?

Do I need to wait 7 days?

As long as it's not a Maryland banned rifle have it sent to your FFL and they'll run the NICS check when you pick it up

you may need to wait for the NICS to come back "approved" if you are between the ages of 18-20 years old.

Any gun shop in Maryland can answer these questions.

Pick one and call them.

Yup. And most will be happy to order up exactly what you want, if they don't stock that item.

I should point out that there are some rifles in MD that would be banned as "copycat" weapons that can be sent to an FFL and then transferred to you, but only if the FFL is a gunsmith and makes them compliant before the transfer.

Example: Any modern tactical rifle that has both a folding stock and a flash hider (e.g., an FN SCAR or SIG MCX) is banned due to the "features test" of FSA2013, but if your FFL were to either pin the stock or replace the flash hider before transferring to you, you'd be GTG.
