Governor Glendening has issued an executive order banning the outdoor discharge of guns in four Maryland counties.
Those counties include Montgomery, Howard,Prince George's and Anne Arundel.
Governor Glendening says the order bans the discharge of weapons for recreational purposes including hunting.

The executive order does not include private approved shooting ranges.
The ban is temporary.
