If I completed the Maryland hunters safety course back in 2003 do I still have to take the 4 hour Maryland handgun training class? One gun store tells me yes and another tells me no.
Required to have the HQL, but exempt from the training component
Someone who completed a firearms safety training course approved by the Secretary of the Department of Maryland State Police.
Has completed a course of instruction in the competency and safety of firearms as prescribed under Natural Resources Article, §10-301.1, Annotated Code of Maryland. Application for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Hunter Safety Course Certificate can be obtained from here and may be used in lieu of Qualified Handgun Instruction.
Is currently a qualified handgun instructor.
Is an honorably discharged member of the armed forces of the United States or National Guard.
Is an employee of an armored car company who has a handgun permit issued by MSP.
Lawfully owns a regulated firearm, you do not have to complete the training to apply for the Handgun Qualification License.
Yes I still have my card to prove I did the course. But the place telling me it’s not acceptable is saying because it’s over 10 years old then it won’t be valid.... like I said, I did it back in 2003. Then again, the place telling me no also does the safety class and all the paperwork and fingerprinting all at the same time.
