    I've got a friend, lives in VA, that wants to go shooting with me. He owns a SPAS-12, which he owned before October 2013. Is this grandfathered and thus okay to bring into and shoot in MD, or is it a banned assault weapon that is no-go to bring in and take to a range because he didn't have it in MD before the ban came into effect?

    Out of state residents can bring their guns in and shoot them, they just can't transfer them to MD residents permanently. He can still let you shoot his while he's there.

    I'd also stay away from storing them for a long time here.

    That's incorrect. If it were a post 10/01/2013 gun it is illegal to possess within the state.

    He may possess them in MD because he owned it prior to 10/01/2013.

    Md. Legislators deemed them only good for hunting raptors.

    As usual, their fact finders saw it in a movie also.

    Actually yes there are at elk neck. State trooper barracks right by the range. And some kind of wanna be cop calls them. I think the he works at the park.

    At that place I can kinda believe it. :sad20:

    People need to learn to mind their own ****in' bidness.
