I sent in my paperwork for the Maryland "wear and carry" permit on Thursday.
I am very curious to see how the process moves forward.
One thing I found out, is that if you are a veteran you can submit your DD214 and you do not have to take the Maryland training course.
This cuts out one step in the process.
The people that I used for references said they will call me if/when they get a call from the MD PD.
I will update this thread as I get status updates if any.
Oh, I did not have a real unique or other special reason, so .....
I took a look at the MSP site, doesn't look possible for just a "common citizen" to obtain.
I also didn't see anything for "non-Residents", but perhaps I missed that.
Not something I'd be willing to try, as I do not want to be answering yes, to the "have you ever been denied a permit" question, that appears on most states CCW applications.
Very curious to hear how things go for you, wish you the best of luck.
