Awwwwwwwwww.

Maybe they should make the Maryland firearms registry public.


What registry?

When you purchase a firearm from an FFL in Maryland does he record the
purchase with your name, permit or license number, gun model or type and
serial number?


They sure do in Virginia.

Isn't that a "registry" of sorts?

I think in some states the FFL is required to maintain purchase records
for some number of years. Those records, identifying the purchaser, the
gun model and serial number would be available to LEOs if required.

I believe that my state electronically records purchase records into a
state data base. This applies to both FFL and private sales.



It has been a few years since I read up on this in Maryland, but my
recollection is that the State Police do not maintain a firearms
purchase database. Even if they did, it wouldn't matter to me. Why would
I care if the Staties knew I have a couple of pistols and a few rifles?
