Quick question....not sure of the correct answer to give a friend of mine.
He has a relative who is coming to visit (who is a convicted felon) and my friend would like to take him to the range to shoot his guns.
Is this allowed under Maryland law? I know that a convicted felon may not own a weapon, or have one transferred to them. But my understanding is that letting someone use a firearm at a range is not considered a transfer as the firearm is still under his possession at the time.
I just wanted to see if there was any opinion on this as I don't want him to get into a situation where he could be putting himself at risk.
Any help would be appreciated.
