Be still my beating heart!

A bill has been introduced in Maryland to recognize Virginia,
Delaware, and Pennsylvania concealed handgun permits!

It may be an uphill battle, but that's never stopped us before. ;-)

Let's all email the committee that is going to be hearing that bill
(it is scheduled to be heard on January 26th).

Please support HB 52!

As a Virginia concealed handgun permit holder, I would definitely
visit Maryland more often and stay longer if Maryland would recognize
my permit. Being able to protect myself and my family is very
important to me.

Let's roll, guys and gals!

I travel for business in your fair state frequently, and appreciate being able to protect myself and my interests there with my Virginia permit.

It is easy to introduce a bill it is a lot harder to pass it. It would be a hoot if a VA, PA, DE resident could carry a concealed handgun in MD but a Marylander couldn't.
