    Hello,

    I want to submit a Handgun Roster Petition for the Glock 43X MOS. The 43 and 43X are on the Maryland Handgun Roster as separate models. The petition isn't complicated, but I don't know what they are expecting in a couple fields. I did reach out to Glock for help but haven't heard back from them. I really need to get this sent tomorrow. Can anyone with experience provide some assistance/advice?

    Manufacturer: Glock

    Importer: ?????????? I assume Glock USA

    Model: 43X MOS

    Model Number: ?????????? Glock web site doesn't have any model number, but I've seen some model numbers on other web sites (e.g. Gunbroker) I'm planning on just leaving it blank

    Caliber: 9x19mm

    Safety Mechanism - Types of Safety: Trigger Safety, Firing Pin Safety, Drop Safety

    Manufactured after 1/1/85: Yes

    Overall Length: 6.50 in. (154 mm)

    Barrel Length: 3.41 in. (87 mm)

    Technical Specifications: ????????? I have no idea what is expected since everything else on the form pretty much covers it

    I don't have answers to your questions but don't you need to send the firearm in to the MSP as part of the application?

    I would think you would need to partner with an FFL, no?

    I don't know. I've seen questions about that but not an answer.

    The form states "Completed petitions must be mailed certified or registered mail, return receipt requested or delivered by hand to:" MSP in Pikesville. So I'm assuming not firearm involved?

    Since the only difference is the milled out slide, you can request addition based on the similarity to the 43X which is already on the roster. I know they do this but I have never filled out the form so I don't know how to do it. There is a woman (forget her name) who handles this stuff and is very helpful. If you search the board you will find posts with her name and contact number.

    The Board * Can * request a Sample for Testing of everything . As noted above * Sometimes * a very minor variation ( such as color change) can be dealt with w/o Sample . But it's a matter of being for the Board's convience , not the Applicant's .

    That's true but, it has been my experience that showing the differences gets it done without having to send in the gun. In those cases, the only difference was either the caliber on the gun or a difference in barrel length.

    I did it for a Different caliber of a pistol already on the Register, Just fill in the blanks with the 43x specs and add the difference , red dot milled slide, should be good to go

    Coincidentally, I'm picking up a firearm, next week, I purchased the gun in June. It was then I learned it wasn't on "the list" thus, was held by the FFL and submitted to the MD MSP Roster Board in August, in time for their September board meeting. Subsequently, it was approved and added to the Roster. A week, torso, ago, my FFL received an official notification of its approval. Once we had the approval, I completed the 77r for the 7 day waiting period.
    The board meets four times a year. Being new to this process, unless I want to wait a number of months, I've learned to check the "Approved Roster" before purchasing. Lesson learned.
    Hope this helps others.

    I just received the following from MSP:


    Good Afternoon,

    I received your petition for the Glock 43X MOS. I am pleased to inform you that the firearm is already on the handgun roster and legal for sale. It appears the firearm is only engraved as 43X and N/A indicates all model numbers/variations are approved in 9 mm for Model 43X.
