From Grand View Outdoors:
The new bill proposed by Baltimore delegate Jill Carter would bar the sale, possession or use of so-called “imitation firearms†and would impose a $1,000 fine and up to a year in prison for any violation. The bill defines imitation firearms as “a toy, a device or an object that substantially duplicates or can reasonably be perceived to be a firearm or a handgun.â€
There is no so-called “grandfather clause,†so according to the legislation, anyone who owns a toy or an air gun that’s defined as an “imitation†would be violating the law.
