MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
June 1, 1982
The Honorable Benjamin L. Cardin
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 1890.
This bill provides that a person may not possess a
short-barreled rifle or short-barreled shotgun in Maryland
except when the shotgun or rifle has been registered with
the United States government in accordance with United
States statutes or is engaged in certain law enforcement
functions.
Senate Bill 57, which was passed by the General
Assembly and signed by me on June 1, 1982, accomplishes the
same purpose. Therefore it is not necessary for me to sign
House Bill 1890.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor
Read and ordered journalized.

House Bill No. 1890
AN ACT concerning
Firearms - Short-Barreled Rifles and Short-Barreled Shotguns
FOR the purpose of amending the law relating to
short barreled rifles and short barreled shotguns to
provide that a person may not possess such firearms and
that certain provisions of law may not prevent
possession of such firearms if they have been
registered with the United States government in
accordance with United States statutes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
FOR the purpose of altering the prohibition on the
possession of short-barreled rifles and short-barreled
shotguns; providing exceptions for certain persons and
for certain short-barreled rifles and short-barreled
shotguns which have been registered in a certain
manner; and allocating the burden of proving a certain
fact to a certain party in a certain prosecution.
