Here's the scoop. I typically spend at least a weekend a month down in MD, and after I get my Form Four approved, I will have a new TAC65. I would like to take this down to MD with me. My class 3 dealer told me that I do not need to submit the form requestiing permission from the BATFE- he said that only applies to SBR/SBS/AOW/FA. Is this true?

Unless your a SOT I believe you must get approval to cross state lines (legally).

First instruction on Form 5320.20:

a. A written request and prior authorization from ATF to transport interstate or in foreign commerce any destructive device, machinegun, short-barreled rifle, or short-barreled shotgun is required under the provisions of Section 922 (a)(4), Title 18, U.S.C., and Section 478.28, Title 27, CFR, a letter of request, in duplicate, containing all information required on this form, may be submitted in lieu of the form.

No, you don't NEED a 5320.20 for a suppressor or AOW, but if you want to get one, ATF will approve one for you. May make things easier in the other state if you have one. MANY LEO's don't know the laws concerning NFA.

If NFA Is legal in the state you are visiting, simply carry a clear copy of your Form4/1 for the suppressor,  front and back for any LEO questions.

NFA is good to go in MD but not all ranges permit their use, so it pays to check in advance.  No need to apply for a 5320.20 for a can.

I personally would do a 5320.20 for a can if going to another state, just for the uninformed LEO's.

Which ranges in MD do not allow NFA items?
