I think the concealed weapons permit has more to do with the handguns than the long guns. In Maryland, there are pretty specific laws about when a handgun can be cased, and it cannot be cased with ammo in the clips or with ammo in the case. The clips and gun have to be in a case, and I believe the ammo has to be in a different section of the car, but I could be wrong about the sections of the car. Further, the gun owner has to be on his way to or from a range, hunting, or a gunsmith when the handgun is cased. The gun and hunting laws in Maryland are so thick that most people need to be attorneys to understand them, and even me, an attorney, would need to spend a significant amount of time reviewing them to make sure I am always in compliance.
