"High Capacity Magazines" legal in Maryland. Yes, you read that right

Updated: Apr 7

We have since put together a much more comprehensive blog article together, which can be found HERE


There is a lot of confusion amongst Maryland law enforcement and citizens alike regarding the law pertaining to "high capacity" magazines in Maryland.


The law is very clear in what you can't do in Maryland with such an item. "Prohibited. -- A person may not manufacture, sell, offer for sale, purchase, receive, or transfer a detachable magazine that has a capacity of more than 10 rounds of ammunition for a firearm."


High Capacity Magazines


Words matter. If you know me, if you have trained with me, or if you have had any conversation with me- you quickly understand the importance of the words you choose.


Nothing in Maryland law prohibits the ownership, use, possession, carrying or a "detachable magazine that has a capacity of more than 10 rounds of ammunition for a firearm".


Share this article with someone else that may be confused on what the law says, whether they are a "law abiding citizen" or a law enforcement officer.
