Question regarding carry that I have not been able to find a good answer to. Here is the scenerio:
Joe is a Maryland resident and lives in a condo building, and the condo development is a private one, surrounded by a fence. The common areas (hallways, parking lots) are jointly owned by the condo owners (i.e. each owner owns a percentage of each square foot of common space). There is a single point of entry and exit, and there are clear markings of private property at the entrance and throughout the development.
There are no referances or restrictions in the condo association declarations, bylaws, or other documents regarding firearms ownership or carry.
Three points:
1. Joe is allowed to carry a loaded handgun inside his condo, concealed or not, without a permit.
2. Joe is allowed to carry a loaded handgun inside his single-car (not shared) garage, concealed or not, without a permit, whether the garage door is open or closed.
3. Joe is allowed to carry a loaded handgun in the common areas, concealed or not, within the fenceline of the private condo development, without a permit.
I know #1 is true. I believe #2 is true. And I have no idea if #3 is true or false.
Thoughts?
