      Build or Buy first AR15

      Do youself a favor and do both. Buy a complete AR15 now and also buy a stripped lower at the same time. Then as time and money permits, build your second. This way, you'll get to start to familiarize youself with the AR15 platform and decide for yourself what you like and don't like. You'll...

      Any luck with carry permit denial appeals?

      My hearing in front of the HPRB was September 3rd. I did not have G&S. They have no interest in anything you have to say. They attempted to cut me off whenever possible. One thing that I did learn is that the MSP Licensing Division requires a "reasonable apprehension of danger" to prove...

      Buying or Ordering AR-15 lower before 1 Oct

      There is an attorney on the Forum that advertises doing Maryland trusts. You could contact him and ask him about doing a trust and putting the regulated firearms into the trust with your grandson as the beneficiary. I don't know if it would work or not. As already mentioned, there is no...

      What is "regulated" other than handguns after 10/1?

      I agree with what you say above and it is something that all gun owners need to take stock of. New York State has a ban that copied the original Clinton Gun Ban of 1994. New York State residents were able to purchase "pre-ban" magazines and "assault rifles" from out of state sellers and have...

      What is "regulated" other than handguns after 10/1?

      I do not believe that you are correct. Beginning 10/1/13, you cannot possess a regulated rifle unless you owned it prior to 10/1/13. However, if you owned a regulated rifle prior to 10/1/13, it is still considered a "regulated firearm" and subject to all laws that cover possession of a...

      What is "regulated" other than handguns after 10/1?

      This is just my opinion, but I do not believe that the definition of "regulated firearm" was changed by SB281. What I think happened is that it created a new category called "assault long guns" which applied to firearms acquired after 10/1/13. I think this distinction is important because...

      Confusing for someone from out of state

      Where are you getting this from? Can you cite a statute or court case that covers this? Where in the Maryland statutes does it define temporary residence? Would a hotel room be considered temporary residence under Maryland law?

      I think we missed something yesterday

      Can you tell me where you got the text of your quote? Where can I find the published Maryland register. The training requirement for a Handgun Permit was part of SB281. I am confident it was done as a CYA in the event they lose at the SCOTUS. However, in regards the the "clean-up", I am...

      O’Malley Places Last in National Poll.

      ^^^^^This. He is attempting to position himself for a cabinet level position in the next Democratic (Hillary's) administration. Hillary is waiting to see how Obama's approval ratings go over the next year. If Obama's approval ratings tank, she will not bother to run and there is a high...

      Out of state residents going to md range ?

      I'm sorry, but you are only telling half the story. SB281 also bans possession or transport into the state. I have read conflicting opinions in this forum as to whether a non-resident could transport a "pre-ban assault long arm" into the state.

      Out of state residents going to md range ?

      I think there is a great desk of disagreement on this issue. I don't even the Maryland State Police know the answer. As far as handguns, Maryland states that you can transport unloaded handguns to and from formal or informal target shooting. The AR's and AK's are a different matter. It...

      What qualifies as 'residency'

      I don't know your financial situation, so what I am suggesting may not be feasible for you. However, is it possible for you to leave the firearms you currently own with someone outside the State of Maryland? Perhaps you could leave your regulated firearms with a relative or trusted friend...

      Cooper's Plan is pretty much what they just passed in New York State.

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      I'm not a lawyer either, but I would assume that since Rusty is an attorney, you would have established an attorney/client relationship and therefore he could not be compelled to testify.

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      I'm pretty sure this has only been the law for about fifteen years as it relates to "regulated firearms". Prior to that it only applied to handguns. I think that Rusty is offering this to people who may own an assault long-gun that was not purchased on a 77r.

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      As an attorney, Rusty is an officer of the court. Judges tend to place more weight on sworn statements made by officers of the court.

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      Rusty, The statute lists out exceptions in subsection b. I listed out the entire section and bolder what I thought was relevant. The way I read the statute is that it does not apply to any firearm an individual owned before October 1, 2013. If I am wrong in my interpretation, please...

      Moving to MD questions

      They don't need to prove it. They just need to have probable cause to arrest you and confiscate the firearm. To the OP, if you are planning on buying any assault long guns in a private sale before moving to the state, I would recommend preparing a bill of sale between the seller and you...

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      The entire text of §4–303. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, a person may not: (1) transport an assault weapon into the State; or (2) possess, sell, offer to sell, transfer, purchase, or receive an assault weapon. (b) (1) A person who lawfully possessed...

      Firearms Ownership Verification for Banned Firearms

      I'm sorry. I was under the impression that SB281 did not differentiate between Maryland residents, non-residents and future residents in regards to grandfathering "assault long-arms". I thought that if you owned it (or had a valid order to purchase) before 10/1/13, then it was grandfathered in...
