Family gifting a MD banned firearm

[Biggfoot44]

For a "regular" long gun a Father-in-Law is immediate family. He's a parent - as related by marriage.

Huh ? Have a cite for that , for an In Law having the legal status of a Step ?

5–201.
(c) “Immediate family member” means a spouse, a parent, a stepparent, a grandparent, a stepgrandparent, an aunt, an uncle, a sibling, a stepsibling, a child, a stepchild, a grandchild, a stepgrandchild, a niece, or a nephew, as related by blood or marriage.

Perhaps i'm reading this incorrectly. But the final phrase "as related by blood or marriage" certainly suggests to me that this extends to "in-laws".

Note that stepparent, stepsibling, stepgrandparent, stepchild, stepgrandchild are explicitly included in the list. The modifer "or marriage" is meaningless if in-laws are not being included.

I’d have to agree.

When did you first loan said firearm to your father-in-law? Was it 2012?

Conversation never happened.

One pitfall though if for some reason the transfer happened while both VA residents, so no interstate transfer issues, if the firearm was acquired by FIL after October of 2013 and the firearm was ever traced, then there would be no legal way OP could possess it in Maryland.

Now if it were acquired by FIL prior to 10/2013 and passed to OP prior to 10/2013 it would be perfectly legal for OP to possess in MD.

I’d bet $20 in the next two years FSA2013 is overturned.

Another person who believes being law-abiding is more important than actually fighting for your rights. This country is full of them

I'll bet a ham sammich against your $20 on the time line.
