Can you hunt with whatever weapon you d like during deer season if you own your property in Maryland?
The answer is no. While Maryland law allows landowners to hunt deer on their own property, there are restrictions on the types of weapons that can be used.
Legal methods to hunt deer in Maryland:
- Archery equipment
- Muzzleloading firearms
- Centerfire rifles or handguns
Illegal methods to hunt deer in Maryland:
- Rimfire rifles or handguns
- Shotguns
These restrictions are in place to ensure the safety of hunters and non-hunters alike. Rimfire rifles and handguns are not as powerful as centerfire rifles and handguns, and they are therefore less likely to kill a deer quickly and humanely. Shotguns are not as accurate as rifles, and they are therefore more likely to injure a deer without killing it.
Penalties for violating Maryland's hunting laws:
- Fines of up to $1,000
- Imprisonment for up to one year
- Loss of hunting privileges
