If someone lives in a condo (or apartment, or single-family home) it is legal in MD to CC or OC inside your home and on your own property.
So what exactly constitutes "your property"?
If someone lives in a condo, and is an owner (not a renter or sub-lease), do the hallways inside the building but outside your unit (like the trash chute area, the mail box area and the laundry) also constitute "your property" or would carry in those areas be illegal in MD?
What about the parking lot? It is private property, so carrying there would not be "public display of a firearm" because the area is not "public"--it is private property.
I don't know enough about MD property law to figure this one out on my own, and MD Statute does not address condos specifically with regards to what does and does not constitute "private property" with regards to carry law.
Any MD "legal eagles" out there who have an answer?
I've considered calling the AG's office, but I imagine the answer I would get from them would be about as straight as a plate of spaghetti...
