steve, or whoever, so there is no way really to get a concealed weapon permit in MD. I have seen people owning gun shops have them, but is that the really only way? if you have a handgun, it must be unloaded and seperated from the ammo, correct? Im only 20 so in the next 6 months I will be buying a gun, and want to learn the laws. Can i carry it on my own property if im hunting or whatever? thanks alot guys
