      Buckmark vs Mark IV

      Mk III 22/45 I have a Mk III 22/45, which I chose for its grip angle. My pistol is very accurate and consistent. I concur that it's seriously annoying to disassemble and reassemble. Supposedly, the mainspring housing becomes easier to remove and insert over time, but I haven't disassembled...

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      I'm currently projecting that the last of the April checks, allowing for 2nd reviews and the fax waiting period, will be right around (just before, or just after) October 1. Don't forget that we have the Labor Day weekend between now and October 1st. For the normal applications that don't get...

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      However, what he's asking would violate current state law, rather than just MSP procedures and regulations. I doubt that anything will come of his request, especially this close to the new restrictions and rules going into effect. Even if the MSP changed its rules, many of the dealers who are...

      MSP Wait Times - 60+ Days

      Depends. The law specifies that previously-available (but soon to be banned) long guns that are ordered before October 1 are allowed to be delivered. There is no such grandfather clause in the law for handgun purchases that are in progress on October 1. So, it's not clear whether those whose...

      MSP Wait Times - 60+ Days

      The recording is only updated (approximately) weekly. So, they may have moved beyond those dates by now.

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      I still wonder whether an HQL will be required for those who purchased [long] before October 1, but take possession after that date. I'm not a lawyer, but when I read the Senate Bill I saw no exemption for sales begun prior to October 1. If an HQL is required, that could mean waiting for...

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      It's probably rare mainly because people who know that they won't qualify are unlikely to go through a licensed dealer. If they want a gun, they buy it in a private transaction from someone who's willing (or happy) to avoid checking in with the MSP barracks. A person who buys it that way, of...

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      I actually did expect the processing to slow down for a couple of weeks after the hiring. Some of the people who were previously reviewing applications are now training the new people. With luck (and proper management), the rate will pick back up soon. It's even theoretically possible that...

      No, but you get to take custody of something that you already own. In MD, that should be enough of an award for you.:D

      MSP wait times for handgun approval

      You people are making me feel like a junior member, since I've only been waiting 68 days. I'm now expecting another 40 days or so, plus the fax delay.

      status recording not updated this week? The dates on the MSP status recording this evening are the same as they were last Friday evening. Hopefully, this just means that nobody updated the recording. Normally the recording has been updated sometime during the day on Fridays. Alternately...
