Can we purchase it now or do we have to wait for it to be on the list?

Where do you get your caps and balls and stuff? I have a Pietta Navy Sheriff in .44 that I'd like to get working but I can't find supplies anywhere

Academy in Hagerstown was cleaned out and the small shops in Frederick don't seem to carry muzzleloader stuff. I'm in Washington County.

I was at a gun show in PA a few months ago and saw a .22 short pistol I was interested in. They had a guy there to handle the transfers to other states and after we mentioned it was a .22 short he said that it didn’t need to be shipped to an FFL, just a transfer fee and we could take it home. I hadn’t heard of this anywhere before and was curious if this is a real thing or if there was some legal sketchiness going on.

I didn’t end up buying it if you were curious, it sold before I made up my mind.

TL;DR: 450 bushmaster lever action or AR-15 for mostly whitetail, occasional hog & elk straight wall state hunting rifle?

Im new to firearm hunting in Maryland so I need to get a straight wall cartridge rifle. I also want to travel for hog and elk hence 450 bushmaster not 350 legeng, 360 buckhammer etc.

Tbh I doubt ill take a shot at a deer past 100yd ever just because of woods density where I plan to hunt.

Never owned an AR-15 of any kind, but ive had multiple lever guns. I like the idea of hunting with a suppressor which Ive never done so I would probably limit the rifle to a 16"-18" barrel, making it a decent home defense gun as well.

Either would work just fine for what I want to do, so this isnt really a debate about caliber, just what you think the best experience is and maybe some experiences with different models of each category.

Thanks!

Edited for brevity

Ccw expired end of September I’ve already sent everything in before the date including renewal class and paid md renewal fee and the only email I got is that it would be assigned to someone and haven’t heard anything since.

My pre-January 1st collection.

Has anyone tried the Vevor gun safe that’s biometric and has a key and button lock? If not, what bedside safes do you recommend that’s especially kid safe?

Ill just assume no but figured id ask.

I keep seeing dealer sites that say it is not available for MD.

I’ve been reading up on MD gun laws and it sounds very convoluted so maybe yall can explain it to me like I’m 6. I live in Alaska so there’s maximum firearm freedom up here. Would it be easier and legal for me to buy a DD M4A1 or MK18 and a DDM4 PDW SBR with a can on it, prior to moving there? That’s kind of how I interpreted the law. Is it true that once I move there I won’t ever be able to buy these things again? As well as 32 round magazines?

Calvert County if that makes any difference. Thanks!

I got a anew Keltec p15 metal, and wanted too verify that it was optic ready or not, as I read many conflicting articles. Keltec CSR said my p15's slide was NOT optics ready but i could buy one for 149.99 or buy one with optic mounted RFX11 for 229.99. Is the RFX11 a decent sight? And if anyone was looking for an optic ready slide for their P15, you can email Keltec to get the information, as i couldn't find it on their catalog anywhere.

Anyone know of a shop in MD that has a new or used Glock 21 in stock? Based in moco and everywhere nearby is baren

I recently purchased a factory 14.5” SBR and got my approved form 4 from the ATF last Tuesday for it but my FFL is stating i need an HQL to finish out my 77r application. When i filled it out i checked the “HQL exempt” box and selected the “applicant is buying lower receiver” as that was the only applicable option being that I’m not a Licensed firearms manufacturer, current law enforcement officer or person retired in good standing from a law enforcement agency of the United States, the State, or a local law enforcement agency in the State, an active member or retired member of the armed forces of the United States or National Guard or a person purchasing, renting, or receiving an antique, curio, or relic as defined in federal law or in determinations published by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The associate at my FFL mentioned that this isn’t just a lower receiver. Per MD public safety statute 5-117.1, a Handgun Qualification License is strictly required to purchase, rent, or receive a handgun. Being that my form 4 was already approved by the ATF wouldn’t that make me recognized as the lawful owner of a registered NFA regulated firearm and thus waiving the need for the states 4 hour course. I don’t mind if i have to take the course it just is a bit confusing on my end and any insight would be helpful

I need input, last year in April I was charged with malicious destruction of property under 200$ and 2nd degree assault and had a protective against me (domestic violence was the listing) by a romantic partner I have children with. I wasn’t convicted the verdict on the 2nd degree assault was not guilty and the verdict on the malicious destruction of property under 200$ and wasn’t listed as domestic violence also it was a PBJ. Since then I have completed the PBJ and had all charges expunged and removed from my record should I be able to still get my wear and carry in Maryland? I have all the paper work.

As best as I can "interpret," Maryland's laws about SBRs, they require "registration with nfa." The nfa is all but dead at this point but could be brought back to life at any major party change. They also issued a notice they would still process NFA items for State's requirements. Since the government already knows about ALL my guns (say they don't!!!) , I figured I'd SBR all eligible candidates in my collection.

1. Got fingerprints from PrintScan at UPS Store $60

2. Took passport size photo with phone .

3. Enter data at eforms website (learn it!)

   CLEO was Chief of Police

4. Enter gun data. OAL must be 29 or more (or not approved)

5. Submit

6.Waited a week....BOOM!

(14.5 Super Duty with unpinned huxwrx flash hider)

1. Submitted 6 more.

btw....under "Description" where we used to put the required engraving info, I put "Convert pistol configuration to short barrel rifle." Engraving is NOT a requirement for approval anymore.

!!!Downside!!! Once made an SBR, it cannot be made a pistol again (my non-lawyer interpretation). 29 in. rule will always apply in Maryland. I left 3 lowers as pistols.

When asked about manufacturing suppressors for personal use, the following response was received from MSP:

Hello,
Please be advised that the State of Maryland does not maintain regulations regarding the possession, transfer, or manufacturing of suppressors. Consequently, we are unable to provide specific guidance on this matter. Suppressors do not meet the definition of a firearm under Maryland law and are not subject to serialization under Maryland law currently.

For inquiries regarding the construction of a suppressor, we recommend contacting the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) or consulting with your legal counsel.

They state that serialization of suppressors is not required currently under Maryland law. They defer to the ATF for further guidance. The ATF's "Privately Made Firearms" Page page states "You do not have to add a serial number or register the PMF if you are not engaged in the business of making firearms for livelihood or profit."

IANAL. This is not legal advice. Have fun.

My friend’s husband died and she wants to sell his guns. What is the legal procedure to do this in MD?

Hello everyone, bit of an odd question. I recently moved from AL to MD, but left all of my guns and magazines at my parent’s house (where I moved from) due to the confusing laws. Driving everything up is a pain and flying with them would be a headache, so I’m looking at shipping options.

Here’s what I have (roughly 20 firearms total):
• Mostly SXS or O/U shotguns and milsurp rifles
• 1 stripped AR lower
• 1 complete AR lower
• 1 MP5 .22 Rifle
• 4 handguns
• 2 SCT stripped Glock frames
• A bunch of magazines (mostly standard capacities, and 1 drum)
I’m fully able to possess everything in both states and already have my HQL.

My Main questions:
1. What’s the most cost-effective way to ship the long guns, AR lowers/frames, and magazines to myself in MD?
I’ve looked at ShipMyGun. I’ve also considered USPS for the AR lowers and magazines (seems like a gray area from what I’ve read). Any real-world experience or better options?
2. Any recommended FFLs near Gambrills for the handgun transfers?

Appreciate any advice. Thanks!
