I really don't know what I want to do about this situation yet. I am an owner of "regulated" firearms, but no handguns. My three Engage lowers were my first-ever firearms purchases, not just my first purchases in MD.
I can't decide if I should wait to see what happens with any potential legal cases or just knuckle under and apply. Conceivably, I could just use my C&R to facilitate handgun purchases, but there are some modern pistols that interest me.

Applying is distasteful for three reasons:
- It violates a fundamental civil right; something that the SCOTUS has claimed cannot be taxed/licensed in regards to, what appear to be, more favorable fundamental civil rights.
