Question: 1 / 50

As of January 1, 2023, which of the following best describes Maryland's stance on 'ghost guns'?

Completely legal with no restrictions

Legal with certain limitations

Illegal to possess without serialization and registration

The correct response highlights Maryland's specific legal framework regarding 'ghost guns,' which are firearms that can be assembled from kits and lack serial numbers. As of January 1, 2023, Maryland enacted laws that make it illegal to possess these firearms without proper serialization and registration. This provision is part of the state's efforts to address the increasing concerns surrounding untraceable firearms that can evade traditional regulations. The other choices reflect misunderstandings of the current laws. Stating that 'ghost guns' are completely legal with no restrictions would ignore the recent legislative changes aimed at regulating their possession. Claiming they are legal with certain limitations underestimates the strict nature of the new regulations that prohibit possession without serialization and registration. Lastly, asserting that there are no specific laws concerning 'ghost guns' overlooks the comprehensive framework that has been put in place to manage their legality.

No specific laws concerning 'ghost guns'
