That Feeling When

When you hear a couple loud bangs and you think:

"that's odd, who would set off two fireworks in the middle of the day?"

and then you remember you live in Baltimore

You're not that far from me. I hear gunshots all the time, but its not violence related. I live on the outskirts of the city so I dont have to hear that bullshit, although Im not far from it. When I hear gunshots, it usually means that my neighbors failed to invite me over to shoot. Do you live in the city limits? Im assuming you do if you hear crime related gunshots. What is the gun laws like in your city, county and state? I have noticed that the further north I go, the stricter the laws.

Ah I wish I lived somewhere where gunshots meant get-together instead of gang hit.

I live right in Baltimore currently. The laws are garbage.
No handgun possession until 21.
Carry permits on a "May Issue" basis.
You need to prove just cause for a carry permit (aka donating to the sheriff's reelection).
Massive list of guns banned by name.
"Assault weapon ban".
Permit for purchasing a handgun.
Registration of all handguns bought or brought into the state.
High capacity magazine ban (only for purchase in state, you can buy in another state legally).

I do have some plans to build some stuff soon I hope that are luckily legal here.
I have 2 STEN mkII kits to build with my lady friend and I will be getting CETME C kits to do with my guy friends. I might do some more at some point, but my budget, dumb laws, and time make this tough.

How are your laws?

Holy hell...I just thought of two things: I love my state even more now and I will never move to Baltimore.

Its interesting how the places with the more stringent gun laws have the higher crime rates and/or violence.

I really need to find a new state man.

Yeah its almost as if those who plan on committing a crime don't follow the law
