I'm not sure how 15.2-915 would apply, as this doesn't seem to govern "the purchase, possession, transfer, ownership, carrying, storage or transporting of firearms, ammunition, or components or combination thereof..."
However, since Virginia is a Dillon Rule state, I also don't know how they would find authority for this in the Code of Virginia, either.
We need a User opinion.

Oops. Well wouldn't that database include pretty much everyone in the county who OWNS a gun then?

Never mind. I, too, got caught by not recognizing it was Prince George's
County, Maryland.
What a shame. I had such a good review of why the proposal would not violate 15.2-915.
Oh, well! Maybe next time.
stay safe.

I agree that 15.2-915 has nothing to do with it but if you remember TFred, I posted a while back about Virginia's Database statute. It would be hard for them to justify a local database for firearms violators.
Now the question is, what do you do about it?
The applicable statute really has no teeth other than to have a court rule it illegal. No punishment at all.
Court costs money...That's kinda catchy. CCM
I don't live there and hopefully will never set foot in the God forsaken place, so it's up to the residents to fight it on a local level.
VCDL is stronger in NOVA than any other place in Va. so it's possible they will get involved but it's obvious they don't have a standing legal fund available.
I think you are probably closer to the mark then you realize!!

To ALL:
I Apoliogize..., as I Thought This was a Virginia-based Issue.
It Appears that This is a Maryland Issue!

I did the same thing once. There needs to be a law
about two states having the same name for counties.
I'm actually glad you were mistaken!
Here's the difference.
