It is not currently legal to own, hold or buy a gun if you have a medical card approved to shop at a dispensary in Maryland.
This is due to a few main reasons, which we explore in-depth, below.
Gun Laws for Medical Marijuana Cardholders
Because marijuana is still a Schedule 1 drug and an illegal controlled substance the law does not permit the possession of a firearm while consuming a controlled substance.
In fact, the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC) makes it clear that individuals who fail to disclose that they are a medical cannabis patient and purchase a firearm are “in direct violation of federal statute, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of as much as $250,000.”
Will Gun Laws Change in Maryland?
There have been many attempts to change these laws in Maryland, however, at the moment the laws stand to remain as they are.
How Can I Get a Medical Marijuana Card in Maryland?
If you are interested in obtaining a medical marijuana card the first thing you need to do is find an approved provider through MMCC.
Once you have been recommended to receive a marijuana card you can bring that card along with your government ID to your local dispensary such as Dispensary Works in Maryland
