    If I buy a shotgun online in Florida and have it shipped here to an FFL, is there a 7 day wait or do they just hand the shotgun over since its unregulated?

    It must be shipped to a FFL up here. It is yours after you pass an instant background check.



    edit: If it is not clearly unregulated, the FFL might want to run it as regulated. Check with the local FFL first. You may have to check that the seller has the FFL information for your dealer up here.

    can you buy HBAR AR's in VA ?

    Yes. The biggest problem is finding an FFL in VA that understands MD's law. We know that HBAR isn't regulated and things like M&P 15-22 and Sig 522 aren't regulated, but I've been turned away at VA gun shows because dealers don't want to deal with it. I always find someone willing to sell them (legal that is).

    If it is a regulated firearm then it needs to go through an FFL, AFAIK.

    If it is C&R eligible then there is another avenue.

    Also, there is no mandatory registration in MD at the moment.

    After you enter the main door to the building , turn left . Continue until you approach the entrance to the " small " ( but still large by normal standards ) side room . Just before you get there , you will see a large banner for MSI . The nice Volunteers there at the booth will be glad to assist you in person as to what and how of whatever you are contemplating buying .
