| If I do a transfer of a stripped lower receiver from me to my brother at the MSP barracks, does he still have to wait 7 days? What do I do keep it seven days or something? |
The MD State Police's online FAQ indicates no waiting period is required because you are transferring the receiver to a family member. The text says: Can the transfer of a regulated firearm be conducted between two family members? Yes, this type of transaction is considered a gift. The law stipulates, if the regulated firearm is a gift to the purchaser’s, spouse, parent, grandparent, grandchild, sibling, or child, the recipient shall: (1) Complete an application to purchase or transfer a regulated firearm; and (2) Forward the application to the Secretary of the State Police within 5 days after receipt of the regulated firearm. Is there a fee when a transaction is considered a gift? No, the fees are waived. |
