Since DC dropped reason to carry, will Maryland?

    Since the courts have struck down DC's G&S, what is happening? Has DC begun handing out carry permits at a kiosk? What happens next there will likely become a template for actions when MD G&S gets struck down.

    Same procedure as before, but without G&S

    Go to 300 Indiana Ave NW to apply
    pay fee, get fingerprinted.
    register firearm (first one free)
    Get training within 45 days

    If SCOTUS strikes down G&S, I fully expect MD to try some shenanigans to evade the order.

    It's in their DNA.

    Time for people to start Long Gun Open Carry in Maryland. When that happens, the scales will be tipped. Don't bother replying with BGOS.

    [RANT ON]I love how as the demographics of DC change so do their views on guns.

    Too many poor minorities? Strict gun control, May Issue
    Increase in White affluent residents? Shall Issue

    Is there any law Leftist do not enact rooted in racism? Sheesh! :mad54:
    [RANT OFF]

    Don't mean to derail the thread. I knew more than one pastor in DC held up at gunpoint and DC still did not find good reason to issue CCW.

    DC's views on gun control did not change one bit.

    The Wrenn lawsuit and a possible SCOTUS loss changing the entire US to shall issue changed their minds

    No, I mean the remaining states who have some form of G&S. A loss at SCOTUS would have removed G&S from all the remaining may issue states.

    Long gun open carry is legal in Maryland but illegal in localities like Baltimore City, where you are most likely to need it. Have to check county/city local laws for legality. There is not MD preemption of local bans.

    Video was to provide a backdrop to get support for favorable legislation. That didn't happen. If I didn't have a permit, I would for sure carry a long gun.

    Since last month Washington DC no longer requires "good and substantial" reason to apply and get approval to carry a firearm in the District.

    Do we know if Maryland will use this precedent to drop ours and become a "Shall Issue" State? Finally????

    :envy:

    Let's look at the History of Merry-Lands Gun Laws going back forever...

    NONE have ever been repealed or replaced by our Merry Legislators...
