Wait a minute. How many owners have been contacted? How many have been forced to submit to ballistic testing?
In each case the person was approached because of the caliber of weapon being tracked back to them based on information on a 4473.
This is in direct violation of the Brady Act. Lawyers and gunowners in MD are active and a challenge will be made.
Let me make this clear. The ballistic testing is the ruse to get "willing" owners to submit to testing. But there have been cases of gunowners who have not submitted to testing who have been questioned and possibly had guns seized who have not submitted to testing.
MJY1288 was contacted by phone by the Maryland State Police. Ballistic testing was never mentioned.
