I’ve read the law and the letters posted here in other threads from the AG and still have a few questions.
Under MD law:
Is it legal to transport a handgun and ammunition/loaded mags in the same locked container (ie a padlocked pelican type box) in the back of my SUV, specifically a Tahoe, or do they need to be separate even if locked?
In the letter from the AG it sounds as if it is legal to carry a handgun in a holster on your person if it is unloaded and the ammo is out of reach and locked in a case as long as you are transporting to one of the excepted reasons/locations. Is the correct? Not planning on doing this, really more curious on the law interpretation after reading the letter.
Under FOPA:
It says if no separate compartment then either firearm OR ammo must be in a locked case, but can they both be in the same case if locked?
Sorry for the newbie questions.
Thanks
