Maryland is close to passing Senate Bill 334, which would ban the commercial sale of 'machine gun convertible pistols,' effectively targeting firearms with a cruciform trigger bar, including most Glocks. The bill, if enacted, would prohibit manufacture, sale, purchase, receipt, or transfer of these firearms after January 1, 2027, though possession of pre-existing firearms would likely be grandfathered. The legislation aims to prevent conversion into machine guns using pistol converters, which are already unlawful. The bill's passage is considered highly probable, and gun owners are advised to stock up before the effective date, with transfers to immediate family members still permitted.

The speaker, William Kirk of Washington Gun Law, details how these bills aim to disarm citizens through various means such as banning specific firearm types, limiting magazine capacity, imposing new licensing and security requirements on FFLs, expanding red flag laws, and restricting the manufacturing and possession of unserialized firearms. The analysis highlights the strategic approach of enacting multiple bills simultaneously to overwhelm opposition and emphasizes the importance of citizen engagement and support for Second Amendment advocacy groups.
