*NOTICE* Maryland
has a unit called, “Maryland Coordination and Analysis
Center.” They have license plate reader cameras around
the state that read license plates of vehicles. Some are
connected to Criminal Background Check programs and
Permit/License Holder lists from the different states
that will supply them with that information. Do use
caution when even driving through Maryland. They can
know if you have a firearms permit/license without even
stopping you.
|
Maryland does not honor any other state
Permit/Licenses.
|
It is against the law for a person who
is not a regulated firearms dealer to sell, rent,
purchase, or transfer any regulated firearm without
going through a regulated dealer.
|
Handguns must
be registered in Maryland, although a license
is not necessary to own a handgun. A license is only
required in Maryland to carry a concealed weapon.
