So bumpstocks and whatnot are illegal in Maryland.
But the law is written such that ANYTHING that makes you able to pull your firearm's trigger faster is the same thing as a having a bumpstock and now a crime. Well a crime after October 1st.
Put some molybdenum grease on your sear-hammer engagement in the 1911? FELONY!
Put some gun oil on the BOLT of Grampa's pre-64 Winchester .30-06? You can go mariginally faster cycling that bolt. FELONY!
Like most gun laws in Maryland... heck most laws, of any flavor... they are poorly written and subject to all kinds of misinterpretation. Which is why I'd never avoid jury duty for anything. ~cough-nullification-cough~.
Shhh, don't tell any Maryland DA's my real name. They will dump me in voir dire.

So, if in Maryland, and someone at the range that looks like he might be a cop asks you if you put any oil on your pistol, tell that guy to go pound sand down a rathole.
It's getting so you can't talk to anyone.

Ask the LE if they clean or oil their weapon and if they do, make a citizens arrest.
I bet if I read the bump stock law (I am guessing, but I know how this state works) there is a carve out exemption and cops can bump stock all day long.
Realize that part of the intent of ALL anti-gun laws is to cause people to limit their association with other gun owners in some fashion. An intentional chilling attempt. If you have to be careful in conversations due to a fear of incriminating yourself in some fashion ("3 felonies a day"), they are winning.
