PARRIS N. GLENDENING, Governor Ch. 26
(5) THE RECEIPT OF AN ASSAULT PISTOL OR DETACHABLE MAGAZINE
BY INHERITANCE IF THE DECEDENT LAWFULLY POSSESSED THE ASSAULT PISTOL;
OR (6) THE RECEIPT OF AN ASSAULT PISTOL OR DETACHABLE MAGAZINE
BY A PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE OF AN ESTATE FOR PURPOSES OF EXERCISING
THE POWERS AND DUTIES OF A PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE OF AN ESTATE. REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 36H-2. In item (1) of this section, the reference to "a unit" of the United States
government is substituted for the former reference to "any agency or
department of the United States" for brevity. In the introductory language of item (3) and in item (3)(ii) of this section,
the reference to a licensed "firearm[s]" dealer is substituted for the former
incorrect reference to a licensed "gun" dealer. In items (3)(i) and (ii), (4), (5), and (6) of this section, the references to an
assault pistol "or detachable magazine[s]" are added for consistency within
this subtitle. In item (3)(i) of this section, the reference to "personnel" is substituted for
the former reference to "entity" to conform with the term used in item (1) of
this section. Also in item (3)(i) of this section, the word "unit" is substituted for the
former word "agency" to conform with standard terminology used to
describe governmental bodies. See General Revisor's Note to article. In item (4) of this section, the former reference to federal law "or
regulations" is deleted in light of the comprehensive reference to "federal
law" which includes regulations. Former Art. 27, § 36H-5(a), which exempted certain personnel, units, and
transfers from the prohibition against manufacturing, selling, receiving, or
transferring certain magazines under § 4-305 of this subtitle [former §
36H-5(b)], is deleted as redundant of this section. Defined terms: "Assault pistol" § 4-301
"State" § 1-101 4-303. ASSAULT PISTOLS — PROHIBITED.
(A) IN GENERAL. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION, A PERSON MAY NOT: (1) TRANSPORT AN ASSAULT PISTOL INTO THE STATE; OR
