Handgun Roster Reform

Summary

The bill makes the Attorney General (or a designee) conduct a legal review of any petition to place a handgun on the state’s roster and requires the Maryland State Police or an accredited lab to test the firearm. A handgun cannot be added to the roster until it passes the required testing and the AG issues a written determination that it complies with state and federal law. The changes also adjust the duties of the Handgun Roster Board and set confidentiality rules for related materials.
