So I've been on this forum a couple of months, but have yet to actually introduce myself.
I'm originally from Montgomery County, but I left 10 years ago when I became a Marine. I unfortunately moved back this year to get divorced and try to recover financially from the debt that we split.
It's sad to say, but I don't feel any nostalgia being back here. Obviously the gun laws suck, but taxes are high, there are speed traps everywhere, housing costs are ridiculous, and the horrible traffic just seems to have gotten exponentially worse since I left. The only thing I will say I like is that I can get historic plates for my car since it just turned 20 years old, so no more emissions!
As for guns, I left all of my handguns back in Utah, and only brought a gen 3 glock slide and my un-regulated long guns because I refuse to register any firearms. This pretty much means that my gun hobby is on hiatus while I'm living here
As of now, I plan on living in the area for 2-4 years, which should be enough time for me to finish my degree, pay off my divorce debt, build a nest egg/down payment fund, and gain a transferable skill-set from my career which I can take back to the United States (see what I did there
).
I just want to live in a world where a gay transsexual couple can defend their marijuana farm with their ARs before they head off to their abortion appointment while carrying a concealed weapon. Unfortunately the crown of MD seems to want to regulate every aspect of it's subjects lives.
