Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main reason for the lawsuit against Maryland's Glock ban?

The lawsuit argues that Maryland's ban on Glock and Glock-style handguns violates the Second Amendment by targeting firearms that are in common use for lawful purposes, such as self-defense. Organizations like the Firearms Policy Coalition, NRA, and Second Amendment Foundation are challenging the ban.

What is Maryland's justification for banning Glock-style handguns?

Maryland's justification centers on the claim that Glock and Glock-style pistols are easily modified with illegal 'Glock switches' or pistol converters to function as machine guns. They argue this ease of conversion makes these firearms a public safety concern.

How do the plaintiffs counter Maryland's argument about Glock switches?

The plaintiffs point out that pistol converters are already illegal under federal and Maryland law. They argue that the focus should be on the lawful use of firearms, not on banning them because criminals might misuse them, especially when the misuse itself is already prohibited.

Are Glock handguns considered 'dangerous and unusual' under Second Amendment law?

No, the lawsuit argues that Glock and Glock-style handguns are not 'dangerous and unusual.' They are in widespread common use by millions of Americans and law enforcement, making them the opposite of unusual, according to legal precedent like Heller v. DC.
