Alright kids, I finally got some strait answers from Jason Dicken (Primary MD NFA examiner), who by the way is a very nice guy, and is just scared sh!t-less and totally stressed out over this issue. He is literally scared to answer calls he knows to be from Maryland, because he/they (ATF) are totally lost again concerning the new MD gun laws. It is by their interpretation, the worst law written, concerning firearms, that they've ever seen. We couldn’t agree more and had a nice chuckle over its stupidity.
I can't believe I'm about to say this, but the ATF needs our help!
First, they are under the interpretation that the MSP Licensing Div, Advisory LD-FRS-14-002, SBS & SBR that was sent out, they think was ACTUALLY WRITTEN BY CPL EDWARDS!!! Jaw dropping, I know. Therefore, when the changeover between examiners like Ted Clutter, to now Jason Dicken and a couple others, the ATF legal counsel had reviewed the MD law again, and like before couldn't make heads or tails of it. I think Ted may have gotten a “talk'n to” for not further investigating 110% all of MD gun laws.
Second, since they are under the impression that the SBR Advisory was not written by the overall authority concerning Maryland firearms, they could not use it as justification for what's legal and what’s not. This is where the comments like "ATF is requesting a letter from the AG" came from. I promptly told him that the MSP Licensing Division IS in fact the regulatory authority concerning firearms within the state of Maryland, and that they’re even the Federal NICS state representative for handguns and some receivers. In which he responded, “if you can get/show us in the law where that is stated and perhaps a letter from the MSP Licensing Division, stating as such then we'll start approving forms right now”! Until then, they are too scared and will probably deny or hold every From 1 until they get something in writing or cited in MD law that spells out specifically what is legal and what is not.
Finally, he is currently taking my cover letter and other associated statuary law subtitles that I had attached to my SBR Form 1 application, to their legal council and is awaiting something FROM US "THE COMMUNITY" to help them understand who the regulatory authority within the state of Maryland is. Jason and I read through the law again together, and he personally now finally understands that SBR's DO NOT have to be on the handgun roster board, which was also another big question they had lingering.
So... COMMUNITY, quickly where is stated in statutory law or in COMAR that MSP Licensing Division (how did they get this power) is the regulatory authority within the state of Maryland concerning firearms. I know it’s crazy, but as soon as they get more of this kind of information, then the quicker they’ll start releasing Form 1’s.
Also anyone that's in current contact with CPL Edwards, please call/email him very soon and see if he can help with the matter. Specifically in the form of another written letter. or something else the ATF examiners can use to take to their lawyers.
This is no sh!t what we gotta do, so let’s get it done!
