Maryland Delagate Smigiel has introduced House Bill 62 which would extend reciprocity for carrying concealed in the State of Maryland to holders of permits in Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania.

This bill if passed will eliminate one of the worst stumbling blocks to the 2nd Amendment found in the MId-Atlantic region.
I grew up on the Eastern Shore of MD and have lived in DE. for many years. I hold C/C permits from Delaware and Pennsylvania, which covers me for 29 states. The problem is, anytime I go to MD. to visit friends and relatives I cannot carry legally. Anytime I go anywhere in a westerly direction like to go to Virginia, West Virginia, etc. I have to go through Maryland. Although covered by the Federal Firearms Transport Law, I cannot carry to protect either I or my family.
I ask all readers of this forum to Call, Write, Email, Text, their Md. State Representatives and give them positive encouragement to vote YEA on HB 62.
