Bill Detail Update

I didn't notice this on the first read through. 


A PERSON WHO LAWFULLY POSSESSED AN ASSAULT LONG GUN OR A COPYCAT WEAPON BEFORE OCTOBER 1, 2013, AND WHO REGISTERS THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON WITH THE SECRETARY OF STATE POLICE BEFORE NOVEMBER 1, 2013, MAY 

(I) CONTINUE TO POSSESS THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON OR


(II) WHILE CARRYING A COURT ORDER REQUIRING THE SURRENDER OF THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON, TRANSPORT THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON DIRECTLY TO THE LAW ENFORCEMENT UNIT, BARRACKS, OR STATION IF THE PERSON HAS NOTIFIED THE LAW ENFORCEMENT UNIT, BARRACKS, OR STATION THAT THE PERSON IS TRANSPORTING THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON IN ACCORDANCE WITH A COURT ORDER AND THE ASSAULT LONG GUN OR COPYCAT WEAPON IS UNLOADED.

 
So, register this year, or expect a court order next year to surrender it. 

Until later, maybe, when they call for them all to be turned in.  FACK!  Almost as bad.

But, considering, if you bought your AR in Maryland it is already registered.  The State cops know you have it.  The purpose of this is to catch all those people that bought an AR in Texas or Minnesota or what have you and moved to Maryland. 

What if you move here next year and bring your guns with you?  Probably like Hawaii is now.  Register when you get here.  It doesn't specify.  Or they might say, "you can't bring that here!"

  2. Here in CT, where we never sunsetted the AWB, it's the latter: "you can't bring that here."

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
