Same thing in all of MD. The running joke is you can carry a gun to protect large amounts of cash, but not your life.

Gun permits are at least fairly easy to get, lots of paperwork and a 7+ day waiting period for background checks (handguns), but no classes and no shooting tests. In fact I don't think I remember being fingerprinted...
