I recently got my C&R license and submitted a letter the the MSP to become a "Designated Collector".
After not hearing back from the MSP for many weeks, I called and was told my letter had not been processed. The reason was because I hadn't purchased a handgun in Md. since the 1980's. When I told the woman that I was a C&R holder, she asked me to send a copy(there is no mention of this being a requirement), and she processed it that day.
Since I was looking for a 9mm pistol, I recently began looking into the unconstitutional Md. HQL and in order to forego the training requirement, they want a serial number from a handgun I owned prior to the 2013 law or a copy of my DD214.
Now, it occurred to me that they already know that I made a lawful handgun purchase in the 1980's. The serial number is apparently not in their system.
Why would them knowing the serial number now make any difference, unless the entire purpose behind this oppressive law is the eventual confiscation of lawfully owned handguns?
I will stick with C&R handguns and skip buying anything they would know about and my just build the rest of my "modern" firearms! I know it costs more to build a handgun than to buy it, but at least they won't be coming to get it when the confiscation begins!
