Actually, it applies if you have any legal AR rifle, as the brace could be used with it. So it has a legal purpose and constructive posession should not apply there.
In a theory, lets say I have a registered AR-15 SBR already, and a pistol with brace. I can just remove the brace from the pistol with the intent to use it on existing SBR, and I don't have to register or modify anything, right?
This is what I got from MD police at some point:
If you wish to use the same fingerprints for your Wear and Carry Permit and your HQL application, you must wait for a disposition on the Wear and Carry Permit application. If you are approved for the Wear and Carry Permit, we can use those...
Because it is sort of in between. It has "new" way engraving, but FFL doing the engraving did not put it into bound book. I guess it is a little unclear what to do in such situation.
Can somebody explain this 77R thing? I had mine engraved way past Augest, I dropped it off and picked up in a few days. I assumed I am done now, as by ATF rules they had to put it in their bound book. Do I need to call and check? if they did it the ATF way but did not put it into a bound book -...
In case anybody else needs it, I put all the places listed as performing marking services on MSPD website on the map:

Well, not a big surprise there. Shame, I was looking for an axcuse to get an engraving machine.
From MSP:
In order to engrave a firearm in accordance with Senate Bill 387, you must be a federal firearms dealer, federal firearms manufacturer, or other federal licensee authorized to provide...
I think it mixes 2 different problems. ATF requirements after 8/24 are not affecting non FFL owners. I don't think it even affects FFL's non stock personal use firearms. It only affects PMF's that given to FFL's for service or sale. SB387 on the other hand affects all MD owners.
So, according...
Just a little history:
In 1936, Stalin made abortion illegal. According to the new law, those who performed abortions could be sentenced to up to three years in prison. Women who chose to abort could be subject to fines. The birth rate increased after the law was first enacted, but the increase...
"Under the ATF new Rule, after August 24, 2022, the ATF will also permit a gunsmith to imprint serial numbers. In contrast, the Maryland law basically allows any FFL to imprint these markings under the zip code alternative"
There is a list of FFLs doing engraving in this article:

"HAS REACHED A STAGE IN MANUFACTURE WHERE IT MAY READILY BE COMPLETED, ASSEMBLED, OR CONVERTED TO BE USED AS THE FRAME OR RECEIVER OF A FUNCTIONAL FIREARM"
What does "readily" means in this context? Does a 0% AR receiver could be "readily completed"? What about 70% or AK bended blank?
If I engraved my 80% when I built them, but engraving does not comply with that newly required format, do I need to reengrave it? I have numbers like Mine0001, etc.
(J) (1) "UNFINISHED FRAME OR RECEIVER" MEANS A PRODUCT THAT IS INTENDED OR DESIGNED TO SERVE AS THE FRAME OR RECEIVER, INCLUDING THE LOWER RECEIVER, OF A FIREARM, BUT IS IN AN UNFINISHED STATE OF MANUFACTURE.
(2) "UNFINISHED FRAME OR RECEIVER" INCLUDES A BLANK, CASTING, OR MACHINED BODY...
