Buyer Beware - Training for Handgun License to Purchase 

We are aware that at least one organization is offering State of Maryland Firearms Safety Training with the following statements:
  • "....the only provider of the Maryland State 4 Hour Minimum Training requirement to purchase regulated firearms."
  • "This class will satisfy the legal requirement of regulated firearms training in the State of Maryland." 
There are a number of exceptions to the training requirement. These exceptions can be found in SB 281, Page 28 lines 20-30 and continued on Page 29, lines 1-16. 

At this time, SB 281 has not been signed by the Governor, and none of the COMAR regulations have been promulgated; much less reviewed and approved. Therefore, the training course outlined on Page 28, lines 1-17 of SB 281 has not yet been established.

M1 Garand Clinic

 

Baltimore County Game & Fish Protective Association is holding CMP clinics on

April 27, 2013 & August 10, 2013 that fulfill the training requirement to purchase M1 Garands, M1 Carbines, 1903 Springfields, and various .22 target rifles, parts, accessories, and ammunition directly from the CMP, when they are available.
 
The CMP currently has various M1 Garands and .22 rifles available for purchase. 
See their website below for more information.  www.odcmp.com/sales.htm
 
When time allows, we also briefly cover the AR15 and M1 Carbine. Active high power competitors who attend may also qualify to purchase match-grade Rock River AR15's discounted through our program, when available.
 
The clinic is open to the public, focuses on the M1 Garand, includes books and other handouts, ammunition, lunch, certificate, extensive indoor orientation, live-fire training on a 100 yard range with covered firing points, and the use of M1 rifles. 

 

Doors open at 7:00, and class begins at 8:00.
