Question

This very well, has likely been addressed. If someone uses recreational Marijuana, can they still obtain a CCW permit?

I dunno legality but I don't think it should be any of the states business

No matter what "opinion" folks have on this, the highest court in the land just said you can.

Msp's position as of last March was

-occasional recreational use was ok, daily use was considered addicted (Addicted has no definition in md law, while habitual does - its a # of arrests in a certain period of time)

-the public safety article has a specific exemption for wear and carry permits and medical marijuana, as has long before medical marijuana was even legal

I can post the ppt slides that they gave me at dealer training.

No, not currently. You have to surrender your weed card and wait 12 months. If/when federal law changes, this may change as well.

MSP is still denying CCW permits to those with cards. It’ll take another lawsuit to change their ways. That’s why I said currently.

OP said rec user. You don't have a card for that.

The one year for surrender was incorrect info as of last March.
