I'm interested in signing up a family member for the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission Card and have a few questions on Maryland Firearms Purchase.

My family member is disabled and would need to have a "Caregiver" assigned as someone to manage their MMCC Purchases.

Here is a link on the caregiver role:

https://mmcc.maryland.gov/Pages/caregivers.aspx

I know there is a question on the 77r asking if you have an MMCC Card. But what if you are a "Caregiver"? Would this negate the purchase? Could a "Caregiver" still use their 2A rights in Maryland?

Hopefully there is a Maryland Shooter Member that can comment on this scenario.

Regards,
SD

I applaud the reasoning above, but making a false statement on a federal from is still a crime that could still get you prohibited for life. l am remembering that the question reads "do you have a medical marajuana card" if your name is on the card the answer is yes.

You will have no problem. My wife had a patient card for a while, and I was her caregiver. The caregiver is not a user, and is not prohibited.

Full disclosure: I did not buy any guns during the period I was a Caregiver, but I recall there is language specifying that the Caregiver is not prohibited.

I haven't filled out a 77r in a while, so I'm not familiar with the language on the current version, but a Caregiver is not a user.




Wrong. A caregiver is not a patient. A caregiver is not a user. A caregiver is not prohibited.

The federal form asks if you the buyer are a user. The caregiver is not a user.

The caregiver does not have a medical marajuana card: they have a different caregiver card. No need to lie on any federal or state form, and no prohibition.
