MARYLAND BECOMES OPEN CARRY STATE?!?!? PLEASE MAKE IT SOOOOOOO!
(yeah.. wishfull thinking).

By the letter of the law we (including myself as an expat) are already......if you have a permit.

 

[Inigoes]

The state has decided not to appeal.

Better yet, the CA4 has affirmed Judge Legg's ruling?

I wonder about a "Carrot and Stick"...

But then, I'm a cautious realist.

EDIT... With the latest news, I've gone from "worry" to "wonder"

 

[Broadside]

Can't you go to any police agency in your area for the cards/prints?

Unlikely as Maryland has a specific state card that you must submit.

One person told me that he was able to obtain a card at a LiveScan location in Maryland. But he went there with the intention of doing LiveScan. The LiveScan was broke so he opted for the cards.

You also have to submit an FBI card. But the FBI card has to have something called an ONI number pre-printed on it. (My guess is that the ONI number tells the FBI which law enforcement agency is requesting the analysis/investigation.)

 

[Broadside]

Not to rile up an already impatient crowd, but there's some more good news and information coming your way soon.

I'm going to guess that the state has decided not to pursue a stay with 4th Circuit as they have already filed their brief.

They probably figure that chances of getting a stay at 4th Circuit are slim and resources are better used on other issues.

At some point with all the splatter coming back on them the state has to realize that they are pissing into the wind.

EDIT: Just read the new thread from MSI and MSP. I was wrong, but it is still good news.

Great news for us all about the the stay.

 

[rambling_one]

Awesome news! It's like a real bright light shown down on this ******** of a state for a change.

Thanks to all who helped, informed, prayed, toiled etc etc.

God Bless Alan Gura - GO GET 'EM ALAN!!!!

And a to Cary Hansel, the MD attorney who worked so diligently with Mr. Gura. We all owe both gentlemen big time!

 

[mrjam2jab]

The problem with this is that the MSP refuses to mail out fingerprint cards.

I've found that out.

My local PD isn't going to have MD's purple card.

It is a BFD, since Woollard was the first outside the home ruling.

The antis tried to contain Heller and McDonald to inside the home, Pandora's box is now cracked open. When the CA4 rules, it will be blown open (thinking positively, of course).

I love precisely how Legg also pointed to the Bateman case inside the 4th Circuit as well.

 

[rambling_one]

Many many thanks, I appreciate that. Got 4-6 hour surgery Aug 13th and am optimistic, so will have to see how it goes! I sure am planning which holster to buy!

My best to you, Sir.

 

[Rossi357]

Frosh is resigning? MD is giving up the appeal? MD just signed reciprocity with every state in the union?

I want to put a down payment on that bridge.

 

[fightinbluhen51]

Well, that didn't take long...WCBM now reporting that Legg has lifted the stay. They did erroneously report we'd be able to carry in 2 weeks...not quite.

Actually we can, if the MSP puts them in the mail

A fine attribute!

EDIT; And for the record, one that I also practice regularly...

Esq,

We have to hand it to you and Patrick. You guys were right on the money.
