Are std capacity mags inheritable in MD?

Mark75H · Apr 2, 2015

OK, scopes, ammo, small mags, clips (real clips) and rifles are inheritable FTF with non prohbited heirs; handguns and banned rifles are inheritable via transfer to non prohibited heirs.

Are std capacity 10+ mags inheritable with their associated guns or does the estate have to "dispose" of them outside the state of MD?

Searched the forum, but could not find an answer

What they don't know..........

I suppose if the gun had a bullet button, then the magazine would be integral to the weapon, and spare magazines would be just spare parts for replacement. If the new owner should decide to change the configuration of a lawfully owned rifle, I can't see that being illegal.

I don't think any of that is relevant in MD

If you're really itchy about it you can always have the executor of the will meet you in PA with al those Dangerous standard magazines

This subtitle does not apply to...the receipt of an assault WEAPON or detachable magazine by inheritance if the decedent lawfully possessed the assault WEAPON...

I don't want anything that has an std.

That language seems to presume that any magazine is for a firearm owned by the decedent, which would mean if someone died owning mags for something they didn't own, those mags would not be immediately transferable within MD.

OK, that might apply to a banned rifle ... nothing about handguns

Yeah, definitely legal for the executor to transfer out of state - what if the executor is the heir of the magazine ... do they have to go to DE, VA, WV or PA to "transfer" it to themselves? :lol2:

Yes, but they need to take a witness

On the same order of law-logic of a MD Certified Instructor giving themselves the HQL or concealed carry class.

ras_oscar · Apr 3, 2015

I have given this a bit of thought. Once my heir has an HQL, I intend to take him to PA, gift the mags to him and return to MD, recording the event in my will. IANAL.

Doctor_M · Apr 3, 2015

The fact that we even need to ask questions like this makes me weep for this state.

Actually, if it has a bullet button, it becomes a banned rifle once it has a magazine greater than ten rounds. Semi auto rifles with fixed magazines that are over ten rounds fall under the "copycat" definition.
