Gov. Martin O’Malley (D) of Maryland signed into law on May 16 a measure intended to control the sale of so-called assault weapons, which have been involved in incidents such as the mass killing at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown CT in December in 2012. The measure casts a broad net over a variety of weapons, both pistols and long guns, that have at least two of three characteristics – folding stock, grenade launcher or flash suppressor. Firearms having any two of these characteristics, therefore, qualify as an “assault weapon” under provisions of the law. Specific pistols, rifles and, shotguns, “or a copy regardless of the producer or manufacturer,” are now banned in the “Free State.” 

 

The law shall take effect on October 1. It also requires fingerprinting, licensing and training for new handgun purchases; reduces the number of bullets ammunition magazines can legally hold from 20 to 10 rounds, and prohibits gun ownership by the mentally ill. Of the bill, O’Malley said, "The legislation signed today takes a comprehensive, common-sense approach to help keep our communities safe while striking a balance between protecting the safety of law enforcement and our children, and respecting the traditions of hunters and law-abiding citizens to purchase handguns for self-protection."

 

Groups lobbying for gun owners’ rights were incensed by O’Malley’s move. For example, a spokesman for Gun Owners of America, Erich Pratt, said after the signing, "We think it's sad that Maryland officials have ignored the Constitution and are now fingerprinting gun owners like sex offenders," Gun Owners of America spokesman Erich Pratt said after the bill signing. "These new restrictions will do nothing to make the citizens of Maryland safer because criminals never obey the gun laws." The National Rifle Association promises to contest the law in court.

 

In May, O’Malley also signed a bill that outlawed capital punishment in Maryland.

Maryland “Freak State” PING!

[BCW]

Time to go “Walking Dead” and buy a cross bow and samurai sword - that is - if you live in mary-Land!

[Venturer]

It’s a really stupid law.

Thousands showed up in Annapolis to protest the law, but out liberal politicians ignored them.

O’ Malley wants to be President. Hopefully when his term is over he will slink away into obscurity.

[Towed_Jumper]

Did the @ssmonkeys passing for “political leadership” in Maryland forget to include M1 Carbines? I didn’t see it on the list...maybe I missed —maybe “they” missed it!

Barrett light .50 cal. semi–auto

I wonder who would use it for mass-shooting...

Here's what I get to live with.

To be replace by some other ultraliberal piece of filth from Baltimore. When I went to college there in the early '60s there was still a streak of common sense in Maryland although there were gun haters even then. That common sense has apparently long since departed.

I wonder who would use it for mass-shooting...

The idea of rifles that penetrate bullet proof limousines scare the hell out of elitist politicians. Its the connotation of the 2A involving resistance to a tyrannical government that bothers them most.

We got invaded by refugees from S.E. Washington.

Thanks ltc...I did see that one (“M1A, excluding the M1 Garand”)...keep in mind that the M1A was a follow on variant of the original M1 Garand. The difference being that the M1A (known as the M14 in the Military), was a select-fire, 20rd box magazine feed battle rifle in 7.62mm NATO.

The M1 Carbine is a small, WWII era carbine with a detachable 15 or 30rd magazine. It fires the .30 Carbine cartridge which is basically a pistol cartridge.

I'm surprise the M1 Carbine was not on the list given it's detachable magazine configuration.

[ltc8k6]

I’m sure the list will be “refined” as gun grabbers report guns that were left off the list.

More oral flatulance from a liberal statist who doesn;t trust normal people withguns or anything else aside from their sexual organs.

To their way of thinking, the only inalienable right is to fornicate like an animal.

It's strange. It's as concealable as a telegraph post. Well, I can imagine that mafia hitmen use them to shoot down a competing boss, but such crimes can't be numerous.
