Just got called by the state police regarding my permit.
Sgt (didn't catch name). The call was extremely short and formal -- basically just asked questions and I answered them. I didn't feel like there was any benefit to rambling on or elaborating, so I gave him "just the facts."
Asked:
-- date of birth
-- employer
-- length of employment
-- registered weapons collector (yes)
-- any other carry permits (FL and VA)
-- how many wespons do you own (not sure, about 4 regulated)
-- he asked any others (I did my best to list the ones that popped to mind, but I really don't know unless I lay 'em out and count.)
-- ever been arrested (nope)
-- comsumption of alcohol (asked frequently/socially/rarely, I said rarely)
-- ever been to shrink (no)
-- single/married/divorced (single)
I think that's about it.
Then said (nearly direct quote):
"We are processing applications at this time, but we are closely watching the court and are awaiting a ruling."
Soooo.... does this mean good news regarding the stay of judgement telle-conference?
And forgive any typos, I'm sick as anything and trying to get the info down before I forget it.
Done,but consider this, if the worst happens, MSP will revoke the permit and not only will you loose your permit and money, you won't be able to get any another states permit because yours was revoked byMSP and if you already have another states permit, it will automatically be void!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why would that happen?
DONE, MSP CHASHED CHECK 3/26
Uh, yeah never heard that one...
so should someone apply now or wait
If you can afford to, apply now. Every person that requests a CCW runs down the 98% issue rate that claim they have when in court. Also depending on the time line of how the next few things happen, you may get a CCW much sooner then others assuming it goes our way.
When people do not apply the state looks at that as people are not interested in getting a CCW. They would never take a pole or put it to a vote. So when someone submits their application that is like voting, or the closest thing we can come close to a CCW vote in this state. Help me out group. Does every feel this way?
Mailed my app in today.

I sent my MD CCW application in yesterday.
I am a little confused about one thing.
I keep reading in these forums that a stay is in place.
However, according to my reading of the Woolard et al v. Sheridan et al case files, on 2012-03-30 Judge Legg ordered,
"...1. The defendants, their officers, agents, and employees are hereby
pennanently enjoined from enforcing § 5-306(a)(5)(ii) of the Public Safety Article of the Maryland Code, which conditions eligibility for a handgun wear-ing carry permit on a finding that an applicant "has good and substantial reason to wear, carry, or transport a handgun, such as a finding that the permit is necessary as a reasonable precaution against apprehended danger" (the "Good and Substantial Reason Requirement.") With the exception of the Good and Substantial Reason Requirement, the remainder of § 5-306 of
the Public Safety Article remains valid and is unaffected by this Order...".
Has that part of the court's order been stayed, and if so, by whom?
