Does the barrel have to say HBAR or the lower?
It does not have to be stamped HEAVY.
Has to be described and sold as heavy.
Does the barrel have to say HBAR or the lower?
Every copycat banned item on the list has a barrel less than .75.
Wow, wonder how much lead you have to fill the butt stock with so it feels balanced?
The bull barrel is something I haven't fully grasped conceptually. I thought they were only target pistol barrels with a large front sight.
[Now just opinion.] The reason the Hbar was let through was so it didn't totally cut the sales of the corporations with lobbyist. If it can be shown as a "sport" rifle, in this case a competition target rifle rather than an anti-government redneck militia paramilitary crazies gun, it would be acceptible. looking at the "spirit" of the law. Like the Walther PPKs is allowed to be imported. [/opinion]
i sent an email to mdsp lc division for clarification. we'll see if they reply.
The described or stamped HBAR is not in the law. It is how MSP is interpreting the law.
So, if you buy a pencil barrel stamped HBAR, there is no guarantee that you will not end up in court.
OTOH, if the barrel profile is larger in all areas than a Colt HBAR or is described as a target barrel (remember the exclusion of the HBAR MATCH was due to sporting use), if you end up in court, it will probably a case to set precedence and force MSP to come with a real legal definition.

Why would we do that? Currently we have an open ended description in written policy. It states that any barrel marked or advertised by the manufacturer as a Heavy BARrel is legal for sale. Forcing the state into a corner and demanding that they specify any precise technical description, will not end well for us. We will end up relegated to ONE single described barrel specification. And that will only limit our options to an extremely small list of manufacturing companies who make that exact barrel. In fact... the current "vagueness" in the law is the ONLY reason we are not limited to one single AR-15. The only one specifically designated in the law is the Colt HBAR target rifle.So when the MDSP comes back and says "ONLY COLT HBAR" we are screwed. Can we PLEASE write more letters asking for verification of vague laws?
That's the irony of MSP's written guidance. Any barrel stamped or advertised by a manufacturer as HBAR is good to go, regardless of barrel thickness or cutouts.

Be very careful when demanding specifics in the law. You could end up losing far more freedom than you could ever hope to gain.
Exactly
