Re: Maryland license to carry
Fixing to plan to get ready to get one.
Have the DD214 so I won't need the class. Have Utah for Delaware.
Sticks and stones will break my bones but hollow points expand on impact.

Re: Maryland license to carry
I have a sister that lives in MD and just last week I looked at the MD carry laws. Just nutz. But as to this "Handgun Training" stuff......if I read this correctly, it involves strong hand and weak hand shooting? Well, what do they do about an individual (like myself) who has permanently lost strength in their weak hand due to accident or disease?
Just asking.
When I looked at MD laws what I determined (and this could be incorrect) is for me to "take" a firearm into MD, it would have to be in a locked container, (not glove box or console) and the ammunition would have to be in a separate locked container, and neither of these "containers" would be "readily "accessible" by the vehicle's occupants. I read some blurb about in the trunk....but I drive a Ford Explorer......what's a trunk?

Re: Maryland license to carry
Training may detail and demonstrate weak hand shooting, but the actual proficiency test doesn*t require it.
Transport laws separate locked containers for Ammo and firearms, in a location the furthest possible from the driver in the vehicle. Some vehicles are more difficult than other so just put them in the back of the explorer as far as possible.. obviously with a MD HGP, those restrictions are not in place.SigGendered

Re: Maryland license to carry
I read on one of the training vendors on this site that said if you got the MD Wear and Carry that you could also carry in DE. Not a huge deal since you can open carry in DE. I don't normally open carry, but I didn't want to take the Utah class to get just DE (at least DE is the only state that I'd really get out of the Utah license). Who knows, maybe I will just take the Utah class, as I am in DE a lot more often than I am in MD.

Re: Maryland license to carry
No weak hand shooting required. No holster draw either. The test required (if I remember correctly) something like 5 shots at 3 yds, 5 at 5 yds, 10 at 7 yds and 5 at 15 yds. Shots are timed but timing is pretty generous.
Everyone passed in my class and the instructors were willing to coach anyone who needed any extra help. All shots must be in the black on a full size silhouette target so its not really too hard to qualify. I think passing is around 70% so you can even have some misses. If you want a MD license to carry, don't be afraid to take the course on account of the qualification.

Re: Maryland license to carry
Florida is easier, the MD class probably meets their training requirement a dd214 does as well. You can apply for the whole thing through the mail. It's more expensive for the actual permit, but if you're already going to take the MD class, it would eliminate the cost of another class, so might be a break even situation in the long run.

Re: Maryland license to carry
I don't think this is true. I believed it for years myself. It is commonly accepted as true in Maryland.
But I think it is just a rumor.
I know a round can't be chambered in MD without a wear and carry permit. But I think the "separate compartments of the car" thing is just a myth.
There was a whole discussion on this a couple months back on mdshooter.com but I can't find the thread to link

It's true if you're traveling under FOPA, so for any non MD resident traveling through.

Re: Maryland license to carry
I'd like to know the basis for that claim. I've checked all the usual sites that show reciprocity and create custom maps when you check of the licenses you hold, and none of them indicate that.
Also, even the DE AG website doesn't show that:
https://attorneygeneral.delaware.gov...-weapons-ccdw/
For the period from January 15, 2023 to January 15, 2024, Delaware recognizes the concealed deadly weapon licenses or permits issued by following states:
