A US Federal Appeals Court has ruled Maryland's handgun licensing laws unconstitutional, finding they violate the Second Amendment. The court determined that the lengthy acquisition process, including a 7-day background check and a separate handgun qualification license requiring fingerprints and a safety course, imposes an undue burden on law-abiding citizens. This decision, based on the Supreme Court's Bruen test, emphasizes that historical firearm regulations did not require such pre-approval for all citizens.
