This sucks ...

[11th_VA]

My bad - says it’s back up, but their 7 days is up ... I want my gun

[the OlLine Rebel]

Misleading title.

No, it’s been BACK ON SINCE June 24.

It’s back-logged but they’re proceeding.

[Carl Vehse]

And the reason for it being down until June 24?!? Hardware malfunction? Software malfunction? Accidental? Sabotage?

[RandallFlagg]

I hope the lawsuits start flying.

[the OlLine Rebel]

I don’t know - and would be nice to know how long it had been down.

[Salamander]

It was up June 6.

Gun and done in less than 20 minutes.

[Do_Tar]

Down on June 21.
Up on June 24.
Working 3 shifts it should have taken less than 2 days to catch up.

[Salamander]

And Rose Hill is still okay.

:)

Check with Maryland Shall Issue. They posted a letter from MSP that said if the seven day unconstitutional waiting period is up, you may go get your gun.

[faithhopecharity]

Since it’s an unconstitutional infringement on our rights to keep and bear arms anyway, let’s just terminate these defunct “checks” or “permits” now and be done with all that garbage once and for all. Reassign the bureaucrats to useful ( instead of harmful ) h
work.

Always remember...maryland is THE Freak state. it is hopeless there. Escape while you are still allowed to do so.

[SuperLuminal]

Hmmm... If they need help, think I may have a copy of it somewhere...

[faithhopecharity]

well, NY and ILL-inois and Californication and Washup State and Ore-gone are also politically phuqued up really badly.

it is so sad

[hal ogen]

That’s true but I reserve special animosity and disgust toward maryland for unstated reasons. LIBs/DIMs/leftist everywhere are to be despised...and crushed.

[Gay State Conservative]

All of it “accidental” of course.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Good to know.

[the OlLine Rebel]

After all, the miscreant thugs are blatantly violating laws....why not for this? (BTW, sue the state if it tries to get you but fails to arrest miscreants.)

[Tijeras_Slim]

When I left in ‘92 the State Police were still taking 10-14 days to approve.

[Salamander]

The locals on the street are probably getting twitchy about I’m always stalking the place, now.

:D
