Is it legal to carry a concealed handgun in Maryland on a Wear and Carry Permit issued by another state?

Yes, without restrictions
Yes, but only with a Maryland-issued permit
Yes, but reciprocity agreements apply
No, Maryland does not recognize permits issued by other states

The correct answer is: No, Maryland does not recognize permits issued by other states

Carrying a concealed handgun in Maryland on a Wear and Carry Permit issued by another state is not legal because Maryland does not recognize permits issued by other states. This means that even if you have a permit from another state, you cannot carry your concealed handgun in Maryland. Option A is incorrect because there are restrictions in place for carrying a concealed handgun in Maryland on a non-Maryland-issued permit. Option B is incorrect because even with a Maryland-issued permit, there are certain restrictions and regulations to follow. Option C is incorrect because while there are reciprocity agreements in place between some states, this does not apply to Maryland.
