Maryland CCW permits

I though all pistols coming into MD through FFL Transfers had to be 'fingerprinted' - aka fired and shell casing photos cataloged with the firearm make ans serial

Only new handguns, and I'd like to point out that only 1 crime has been solved using the shell casing "fingerprint", and they already had the guy's name, and tag number.

ok, but I thought this discussion was about buying a concealed carry gun. AKA a regulated firearm.

He's saying that you can go to VA and buy a non-regulated gun (shotgun, rifle, etc). But you can NOT go there to buy a regulated gun (handgun, "assault rifles", etc.) without going through a FFL.

I know Maine isn't Maryland but up here obtaining a CCW is as easy as pie. We have crimes the same as any place else but they are mostly restricted to the big cities. In the country where I am it's almost nil because the criminals know almost everyone owns a gun and knows how to use it.

It sounds like there are a fair amount of people that do not know we exist. If interested, Cromwell's Firearms is a no BS firearms dealer and full retailer with great prices (especially once you figure shipping and transfer fees if you order off the Internet). If you buy direct from us, there is no transfer or shipping fees.

We have a limited inventory on hand, but can get almost anything a couple of days if in stock with manufacturer/distributor. We are located in Great Mills, MD. We also gladly do transfers, but please let us see if we can get the item for you direct, which is typically better for both buyer and seller.

We also do basic gunsmithing.


Anyone interested in how the CCW/MD Handgun Permit goes, let us know, because we have been MD Permitted for the last 10 years, and over 20 years in other states.

We are MD State Police certified firearms instructors and NRA certified firearms instructors.

We plan on going live on a full Point of Sale web site soon and our web site will show everything our primary distributor stocks, which is thousands of items. Take a look at our current web site Home to get an idea of our prices and policies.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Best regards,

Totally forgot about you guys! I have heard about you, and seen your website. Prices seem fair also.

Best of luck! :buddies:

I wonder if the MSP application forms are going to change? Probably, so there's no sense in getting one now is there?

It'll change, but no use waiting on that if you really want your permit. Use the current application and where it asks about your G&S, simply put "all lawful purposes" and be done with it.
If you apply now (before the 8th) and the 4th puts another stay in place, you'll lose your application fee. If you can afford that, go for it and it may put you a wee bit ahead of others who wait. Otherwise, wait until after the 7th and ensure there is no stay and apply on the 8th.
You'll have to do electronic finger prints, but plenty of places do that now.

The trick is to get your app in before they change it. When they get around to changing the app, and more importantly, the laws, and regulations is when I have a feeling things will get crazy.

Yes. Once you cross state lines, you enter into commerce, which the gubment doesn't like it's citizens to do.

It's all in the Gun control act of 1968
The Gun Control Act mandated the licensing of individuals and companies engaged in the business of selling firearms. This provision effectively prohibited the direct mail order of firearms (except antique firearms) by consumers and mandated that anyone who wants to buy a gun from a source other than a private individual must do so through a federally licensed firearms dealer. The Act also banned unlicensed individuals from acquiring handguns outside their state of residence. The interstate purchase of long guns (rifles and shotguns) was not impeded by the Act so long as the seller is federally licensed and such a sale is allowed by both the state of purchase and the state of residence.

Private sales between residents of two different states are also prohibited without going through a licensed dealer, except for the case of a buyer holding a Curio & Relic license purchasing a firearm that qualifies as a curio or relic.

Private sales between unlicensed individuals who are residents of the same state are allowed under federal law so long as such transfers do not violate the other existing federal and state laws. While current law mandates that a background check be performed if the seller has a federal firearms license, private parties living in the same state are not required to perform such checks under federal law. State laws however can prohibit such sales.

A person who does not have a Federal Firearms License may not be in the business of buying or selling firearms. Individuals buying and selling firearms without a federal license must be doing so from their own personal collection.

Under the Gun Control Act, a federally licensed importer, manufacturer, dealer or collector shall not sell or deliver any rifle or shotgun or ammunition for rifle or shotgun to any individual less than 18 years of age, nor any handgun or ammunition for a handgun to any individual less than 21 years of age.
