They came to my place because I went to the state police and asked who to register the Luger, I was told because I received it so long ago, prior to the laws that requires regulated firearms to be registered in MD were written, that I did not need to worry about it. However when I took it to the range and filled out the range form that I had a 9mm it raised a red flag because I did not have one registered to me. They came to my house and asked about it and I told them the MSP had told me and the detective said OK and left. He then went back and filed for a search warrant to search for more unregistered guns at my residence. In MD guns MUST be registered if you aquired them after 1994 (I think it was 94) or you are breaking the law. So they raided my house, 20 of em, some dressed in full on swat team gear complete with MP5's and face masks all for a old German Luger that my grand dad had passed down to my dad who gave it to me.

I currently live in Maryland and this state is about as unfriendly towards guns as it gets. The elected officials in this state have said many times they want to totally disarm everyone in the state. The 2nd Amendment has been brought up many times and they do not care. We are also currently looking for a new home out of this state.
