STANDARD APPLICANTS

This is the APPROVED Training to meet the Requirements:

-Someone who completed a Certified Safety Course. The OLD Online Handgun Safety program formerly offered no longer complies with Maryland Law. It has been superseded by the new Maryland Firearms Safety Act of 2013 which became effective on October 1, 2013.

-Has completed a Course of Instruction in the Competency and Safety of Firearms as prescribed under Natural Resources Article, §10-301.1, Annotated Code of Maryland. Application for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Hunter Safety Course Certificate can be obtained from here and may be used in lieu of Qualified Handgun Instruction.

-Is currently a Qualified Handgun Instructor.

-Is an Honorably Discharged Member of the Armed Forces of the United States or National Guard.

-Is an Employee of an Armored Car Company who has a Handgun Carry Permit issued by MSP.

 

Here is how the Training works. The Training Class is a MINIMUM of 4 Hours and the COST is determined by the Instructor. An Applicant will take the HQL Class as a Student. When the Student has successfully completed the Class, the Instructor will give the Student his/her Training Certificate with Training License #. The Student will use that License # when applying online for the HQL license. The Online Application may require you to upload the Certificate so be aware that you may need a Document Scanner. The Maryland State Police will email or contact the Instructor to verify the student's attendance and confirm the Student passed the Class.
