I was turned down for my Maryland permit as most of you thought would happen.
I have an acquaintance who is a senior office in the Maryland State Patrol. He told me he would make sure it went through. I talked with him a couple of time during the process ans he said all was well.
When I was denied I emailed him to see what happened. All he said was sorry it should have went through.

So much for counting on a contact in the right place.

I would have been happy for you personally but this shows what a corrupt system they have if someone on the inside could help.

I remember the “old days” in Delaware when knowing a state trooper helped an acquaintance of mine get one.

Unfortunately for you now, you will have to answer in the affirmative that you have been denied a license in the past when making applications.

All of those permit mean squat if you can't carry outside of your home.  Write, call, bug, your politicians, not that it works in MD, but can't hurt.

I'm really sorry to hear that.

As has been said, the problem is that now you have to admit to having been denied a permit.

I hope that doesn't cause you any problems in the future.

Does Maryland have an appeals process? I don't know, but if they do, I certainly would
appeal. I would also want to know why your request was denied, just in case it is an issue
you could correct before reapplying. Please carry every day. You may choose to not defend
yourself, but you have already made that choice if you leave your weapon at home.
