I want to know where I can go and not be harassed by idiotic anti-firearm laws as exist in New Jersey, New York, most of New England and Maryand.
Hey now, MD may not be all that gun friendly, but to compare us to NJ and parts of New England!!!....come on now!
Except for a few semi auto handguns like Tec 9s, whatever you have in NJ you can bring with you to MD, but here you don't need an FID card, to register jack (except full auto), don't need to tell the state and you don't need state "permission" like you would in NJ or Mass.
In MD all "class III" except for exploding ordnance is legal.
We can have so called "assault weapons" and possesion of larger than 20 round mags is legal (no transfers allowed of over 20 rnd mags though).
We can walk into a store and buy an antique or cap & ball revolver handgun and walk out like we bought a pack of cigaretts.
With my C&R license I can order and have shipped to my house C&R handguns without getting the state's "permission" first.
MD is a de facto castle doctrine state (stand your ground only applies to in the home though).
In MD I can make my own handgun (for personal use) without telling the state.
Of course MD is not all flowers and candy.
We do have the seven day wait when purchasing handguns and so called "assault rifles" within the state (my C&R handgun purchase from out of state is not subjected to the seven day wait).
The state gets to decide which handguns made after 1984 can be sold in the state (possession is not restricted, just the sale of them is restricted).
Stuf like MAC 10/11s are illegal unless they are federally registered AOW, SBR or full auto.
Carry permits are virtually non-existent for anyone not a retired officer or a business person.
And we have similar transport laws regarding handguns (to the range, informal target practice, the gun shop, etc.), but
pleeaase don't put us in the same category as NJ.
