I didn't think this had much of a chance, but it sounds like it may be a real possibility. In the senate, there are a few dems from 2A-friendly areas (ND, MT, etc.) who are up for re-election next year; A "no" vote may mean the end for them. Lumping in the NICs changes will give the dems a reason to vote "yes".

Wow, what a laughable letter.
Constitutional Carry states (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire), that require NO permit at all, have some of the lowest violent crime rates in the country. WTF is he talking about??

"Twenty states allow permits for people convicted of violent crimes."
Does he source that claim, or is just a load of frosh? 'Cause it seems like a load of frosh to me.

South Carolina has two forms of Domestic Violence: Criminal Domestic Violence and Domestic Violence.
Domestic Violence is a misdemeanor, and does make a prohibited person.
I think these are the same areas that are doing away with bullet proof glass in small stores/liquor stores Fox
Funny how some that are so sure this will not pass are very sure to keep reading and posting in this thread. My fingers are still crossed.

Question: How does a restricted MD resident permit apply to carrying out of state, with or without this law passing?
Yeah, Philadelphia can't stand that Baltimore is beating them statistically in crime.
Think of the competition as a Eagles/Ravens thing

IMHO Md restrictricions will have no bearing on how you carry in other States they apply to MD only. Also MD alloows Hollow point bullets but they are a no go in New Jersey.

Found the study he's citing for the LEO homicide rates (attached.) It's a bad study. They "proxy" firearm ownership numbers using firearm-suicides as a percent of all suicides as an annual measure of firearm ownership rates. They have a divide-by-zero problem with Iowa, Maine, Vermont and Wyoming - these states have ZERO LEO homicides during the 15-year measurement window. (To counter this, they lump a bunch of states together so the group-denominator isn't zero.) And they come right out and say "Hey, not all states support a positive correlation between citizen firearm ownership and LEO homicides." Wyoming had the highest ownership rate (52%) and ZERO LEO homicides. DC, by comparison, has a 4.8% ownership rate and one of the highest LEO homicide rates. Amusingly, they lumped DC into the "low ownership" pool which skews the result toward the desired conclusion.
Finally, they admit that their study is "limited" (aka "severely flawed") right before proclaiming the conclusion "Officers in the high-gun states had 3 times the likelihood of being killed compared with low-gun states. Higher levels of civilian gun ownership appeared to be a significant risk factor for the homicide of LEOs."

Thank you. So the restrictions apply with or without reciprocity IN state, but not OUT of state?

My reading of the House bill is that it preempts any state law on magazine capacity or ammunition type.
"(e) In subsection (a):
(1) The term ‘identification document’ means a document made or issued by or under the authority of the United States Government, a State, or a political subdivision of a State which, when completed with information concerning a particular individual, is of a type intended or commonly accepted for the purpose of identification of individuals.
(2) The term ‘handgun’ includes any magazine for use in a handgun and any ammunition loaded into the handgun or its magazine."

"Marylanders convicted of violent crimes are not allowed to carry concealed weapons on our streets..."
but they do anyway, because they don't follow, or care about your silly laws
Also, I guess Frosh forgot about Baltimore

As it is written now - yes. THAT is why The Less Than Honorable Mr Frosh is so terrified.

When All Else Fails.
The MGA will write and pass veto proof legislation preventing you from using your Utah permit in 99.999% of Maryland.
