Maryland Concealed Carry Permit

Anyone have a clue on any progress on easing the grip on getting a concealed carry permit in MAryland?? I have one for every stste except Maryland ( where I live !!) and it seems you have to be directly threatend and be able to prove it by way of police reports in order to be considered for one, unless you own a business that requires you to carry cash. Kind of STUPID I think as it works in every other state and would certainly keep the crime rate down. THe theives and thugs in Maryland don't need a CCP to carry !!
 
I thought Maryland and Carry permits are a oxymoron. In fact the only thing that Maryland did right with it's use of force was allow Lee Mavlo to be sentenced to Death.
 
You have EVERY State?

You actualy have your CWP for every state except Maryland?
I'm impressed. Illinois & New York too?
How about D.C.?
 
I also live in Maryland and HB45 was introduced yesterday.

Sponsored By:
Delegate Smigiel
Entitled:
Handgun Permits - Qualifications - Presumption and Burden of Proof

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Synopsis:
Repealing the requirement that the Secretary of State Police base a finding that an applicant for a handgun permit has a good and substantial reason to wear, carry, or transport a handgun on an investigation; establishing a presumption that an applicant for a handgun permit has a good and substantial reason to wear, carry, or transport a handgun for the purposes of qualifying for a handgun permit; and establishing that the Secretary has the burden of specified proof.

Maybe there is hope..

Welcome to the Forum, JL.

If you try to travel based on what you typed, you could become the next "Poster Totter" for HR-822!

DISCLAIMER: I am not a lawyer. Nothing below is presented as legal advice.

CO, FL, ME, MI, NH and SC* accept only RESIDENT permits from states they honor. CT, NY, NYC, MD, NJ, RI, MA recognize only their own permits and do accept applications from non residents. The states of CA and HI recognize no permit but their own and do not issue to non residents. Guam, Peurto Rico and the US Virgin Islands also recognize only their own permits and do not issue to non residents. American Samoa, District of Columbia, IL and the Northern Mariana Islands are no-issue, no permits recognized areas.

*SC will issue non resident permits to people who own property (and pay taxes on it) in SC (proof of tax payment required).

Oh, by the way, you've pretty much nailed the description of the process to get a MD permit. One who is a DOCUMENTED serial victim in an ongoing violent domestic abuse or violent stalking incident MIGHT get fast-tracked for a permit. Or not.

Take Care.
