Looks like he was appointed in 2014? That says, what, Hogan? Maybe? http://msa.maryland.gov/msa/mdmanual/30sp/html/msa16938.html
He has a book on the MD Constitution. No preview pages of any references to "arms." I'm not spending 100+ on a law book.

EDIT: The Amazon link does let you look at pages referencing "Arms." Click preview then "search" enter "arms."
Edit 2: Also, I do not believe this is much of an opining on the subject as it is factual, "here's the MD Constitution, here's what it says," kind of book. Form your own conclusions.

Dan Friedman, appointed by O'Malley, is quite the anti according to the Baltimore Sun.

O'Malley appoints General Assembly's top lawyer as judge
Erin Cox The Baltimore Sun
Gov. Martin O'Malley has appointed the lawyer who defends the General Assembly to a seat on the state's second highest court.
O'Malley on Tuesday appointed Dan Friedman, an assistant attorney general, to the at-large position on Maryland's Court of Special Appeals, a job vacant since Judge Albert J. Matricciani resigned earlier this year.
Friedman has been the chief architect behind the Maryland's defense of its new ban on the sale of assault weapons, upheld by a judge earlier this year, as well as several other high-profile cases. In that role, Friedman has also dispensed legal advice to state lawmakers and public officials.
In his role as assistant attorney general to the state legislature, Friedman has advised state lawmakers on legislation for the past eight years. Before that, he worked in O'Malley's mayoral administration as an assistant city solicitor, after a private sector career as a litigator.
On Tuesday, Friedman was in court defending the state's decision not to use an online-balloting tool developed to help protect the privacy of blind people during voting. The National Federation of the Blind has filed a lawsuit against the state contending that Maryland is violating the Americans with Disability Act by not using the tool.
O'Malley, a two-term Democrat whose tenure will end in January, also on Tuesday appointed judges to circuit and district courts across the state.
Raymond George Strubin, a longtime public defender in Garrett County, was appointed as a Circuit Court judge there.
O'Malley appointed Easton lawyer Stephen Hughes Kehoe to the Talbot County Circuit Court. In Washington County, assistant state's attorney Viki Marie Pauler was appointed to circuit court.
O'Malley also appointed lawyer Clayton Anthony Aarons, public defender Brian Charles Denton and deputy state's attorney Ann Louise Wagner-Stewart to the Prince George's County District Court.

Wasn't sure if it was something that folks here collated info on or not.
Will the NRA site include judges and any other local stuff? On mobile now, and the site is a little awkward (certain things I try to avoid on the work PC, just so I don't bump into any IT filters and flags).

There was quite a bit of documentation collected by the community for the 2014 races, as there were many local and state positions under contention. This election session is leaning more toward the national level and KevinK's summary pretty much says it.
If you uncover any helpful info which may help preserve our 2A Rights, by all means feel free to share it.
This site lists all the local judicial contests:

In 3rd Circuit, Baltimore County, I would suggest voting for Leo Dymowski, and only Leo Dymowski, despite being allowed two choices.
