HOW to APPLY for a MARYLAND Carry Permit

[shootin the breeze]

So, someone please tell me I'm not crazy. I'm planning to renew my permit. I'm an honorably discharged member of the Army and the MD Army National Guard. I know it says on the MSP website that I am exempt from renewal training but I just don't believe them. I know, I know, BGOS but I need someone to tell me I'm not dreaming that up...

You ARE exempt. Just need to include a copy of your DD-214 just like you did for your initial application. Makes no sense why we have to send it for a renewal because the old one never expires. Once a vet, always a vet.

Thanks, Straightshooter. I hate the way this state makes me distrust my eyes since I don't trust it as far as I could throw it. I appreciate the confirmation.

DOD CCW

Has anyone heard of DOD being issued due to the ISIS threat?

I'm DOD, & honestly I think this is a long-shot. Just my opinion.

They won't grant you one if you don't apply.

Very good post.

I plan to as soon as I have my VA non resident in hand.

I want to be able to show that Maryland has absolutely no reason to deny me a CCW, other than infringing on my constitutional rights.

Having a permit from another State means absolutely nothing to them and does absolutely nothing to bolster your application.

95% (or higher? ) of those of us who have MD permits had at least one other State permit prior to applying, it means less than nothing to them.

It seems like the winning combination (and you have to battle yourself all the way to the Handgun Review Board for this) is having top secret type clearance and being part of the OPM breach.

Sounds like a blast.


Day one?

Really? Have there been many people who got through with this combination? And does it have to be TS, or would Secret suffice?

There have been several, you really need to follow the HPRB meeting threads. They have all been TS though.

This is interesting to me.

I witnessed one case that was overturned in favor of applicant that had both. Another that they discussed was absent of the TS clearance and the msp decision was upheld (no permit for applicant).

That's just two cases and there are others that have gone to alot more hearings than I have. Plus the goal line is moved from time to time so I never would discourage anyone from applying. The more the better.

Friends,

People that fall under the DoD umbrella, for example, DMA, DCA, DHA, probably won't be able to apply the "ISIS/OPM" threat to their application successfully. That doesn't mean you shouldn't try. As far as ISIS is concerned, if you are a mil/fed/ctr, you ARE a target... It's just sad that MSP doesn't see it this way.

If someone has a TS SCI (+tickets associated with it, which requires a SSBI), and is a victim of the OPM Breach, AND their biometric data compromised, this should be a no-brainer automatic unrestricted WC permit. Any local/state LEO that dismisses this as Good and Substantial reasoning is uninformed, clearly NOT in the KNOW, and has a personal agenda.

Should be, I definitely agree. But there you go trying to apply logic and common sense! We all know those aren't used in Md, not by the state gummint anyway.

I submitted mine recently using that as a reason. I believe with that and the current anti government/ recent terror attacks, it should be a "valid" reason till the courts settle this mess once and for all...

"Should" be. If you are comfortable doing so, please update us as to your progress. People have recently been denied at the HPRB with this approach.
