In Maryland, who determines if an individual is qualified to obtain a Wear and Carry Permit?

The Maryland State Police
The individual's local sheriff
The ATF
The FBI

The correct answer is: The Maryland State Police

In the state of Maryland, only the Maryland State Police has the authority to determine if an individual is qualified to obtain a Wear and Carry Permit. While the local sheriff's office and various federal agencies such as the ATF and FBI may have a role in the overall process, they do not have the final say in determining an individual's eligibility for a Wear and Carry Permit. This decision is solely made by the Maryland State Police. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect and do not hold the same level of authority as the Maryland State Police in this matter.
