| dc.description.summary | [AI GENERATED] The Code of Ordinances of the City Council of Montgomery, as codified by W.M.S. Thorington in 1888, is a municipal code that governed various aspects of city life in Montgomery, Alabama. Section 518 of this code pertains to firearms regulations, although the specific content and provisions are not provided in the title. During the late 19th century, many cities in the United States were adopting ordinances related to firearms, often with the goal of maintaining public safety and order. These codes frequently included provisions regulating the carrying of concealed weapons, licensing requirements for gun ownership, and restrictions on the discharge of firearms within city limits. The inclusion of such regulations in municipal codes reflects the growing concern among urban authorities regarding public safety and the need for more stringent control over firearms in densely populated areas. | en_US |
