Don't buy a handgun at bass pro. Their prices are high, and the customer service isn't the best. You will get a better price and have a more enjoyable experience at a good local shop. The industry partners section of this forum has a lot of good shops listed in it.

As for the stuff in your original post, it'll never happen. Most of it would be illegal for the police to do.

I am a permanent resident card holder living in Maryland close to 10 years. just checking with senior folks here.

Thanks for all your input.

Doesn't his permanent resident status cause issues?

no.. i think only temporary visa etc. will cause issues.

 

[damifinowfish]

No, I never lived in any of those states (only Illinois for 9 months) . But I work in DC.

This might cause a problem if you are not in your home state.

 

[suptier]

yep, green card is fine in MD to own gun. Temporary visas cause issues but even for them it's possible if they have hunting licence.

no.. i think only temporary visa etc. will cause issues.

 

[suptier]

I meant I lived in illinois 10 years back. I am living in MD and paying MD taxes for almost 10 years. and I want buy it an use in MD

This might cause a problem if you are not in your home state.

 

[suptier]

Careful, you might get arrested for doing that.

Just kidding.

No

I am sure I (as well as many others here) are on every watchlist imaginable. I am a member of the NRA, MSI. I post here, and lurk on "prepper" sites. I wear pro-gun t-shirts, and have an MSI and "don't tread on me" sticker on my car. I have a C&R FFL, designated collector, Some class 3 stuff, MD CCW, and every time I get pulled over, I have a gun on my person which I declare to the officer. I have NEVER had a problem.

OP smells like a fishing trip to me

All,

I am planning to purchase my first hand gun but I got few questions. what kind of daily pain would it have from MD Police as it is recorded with them?

1) Do they come to my home every time I buy ammo to go to the shooting range and I need to give explanations with all the proofs?

Thanks

You'll be investigated regularly by the Martin O'Malley Memorial Dept of Public Safety & Ben Cardin/Barbra Mikulski Pre-Crime Division of the State Police.

 

[suptier]

Honestly I am just trying to get some information before I buy that's all.May I ask what caused you to think that way.

Just make sure you bring a copy of your DL License, Green Card and 2 Proofs of Billing for 3 months when you go shopping.

I would agree that you should speak with one of the industry partners who are listed here on the Home page.They would probably give you better advice and a better price than you would get at Bass Pro.

 

[suptier]

I just know only on target and Bass pro. I think I should do some research in the industry partners. I finished the on line training course today and thought of going back to bass pro this week end. May be I should research for price before. Thanks all for your in put.

Officer, you're not allowed to have two accounts on MDS.

 

[suptier]

Thank you Mr.Bond.

I always get a chuckle when cops from european countries visit on business and marvel at the fact that we can buy rifles and shotguns in big box stores next to the car batteries. While we colonials complain a lot, we have it pretty good.

New guy with low post count puts up a broad question about negative experiences in a public section of the forum .

If I'm wrong I apologize.
