Our current AG in 2013 as a State Senator authored "Firearms Safety Act of 2013 (FSA’13)"
In Maryland prior to 2013, the shape of the barrel determined whether or not you could buy an AR-15 cash-and-carry or if it was treated to extra scrutiny and registered with a 7 day waiting period. Heavy barrel AR-15s were sold like hunting rifles. AR-15s with the non-useful cut for the M-203 grenade launcher were sold as “deadly assault weapons”.
I am not making this up. And prior to 2013 it was perfectly legal to take an HBAR rifle and put a government profile upper on it and turn it into an EVIL “assault weapon”.
Yes, the law in Maryland is this stupid. More stupid shit:
in MD it is illegal to purchase or sell a magazine greater than 10 rounds, BUT we can leave MD, purchase whatever capacity magazine and legally return to MD with them. So if whomever has a great sell on 30 round magazines, as a MD resident you are unable to purchase and have them mailed into MD. So you purchase them as a gift for a family member and or friend living outside the boundaries of MD. Yes as a gift, the majority of magazine sellers will only sell to MD residents if it is purchased as a gift and mailed to a non-Maryland address.
If you scroll down to
"Regulated firearm” means it list all banned firearms. Note: US Federal Court on a 10-4 ruling upheld MD's ban, referencing Supreme Court stating they aren't protected by the 2A.

Just sold a P226 TACOPS to a MD resident, but unable to include the 4-20 round magazines.
