This will have MANY parts that are not interchangeable. For example, the whole upper receiver, since AK's don't have upper receivers. My guess, from what little I know about Maryland? No problem. (note the word "guess" in this comment)
M+M M10X - Maryland legal?

Yeah, I checked the specs... "upward shoulder thingies" are not specified... not even an option, so far as I can see.But it looks scary! And you might be able to put a shoulder thingie that goes up on it, it must be banned, it's for the children!
I believe it, label says CA legal, so logical that they would 'work with' other states to get them in, in whatever configuration is legal.
There's something about the look of that thing, it's like part AR, part AK and part Sig. It's like my left brain says that shouldn't work, then my right says, oh, yeah, it will work...
What? How did I miss this?
Need to tell my buddies who regret not picking up an M1A before the ban.

Up to 5 posts... all of them good so far.

Hey friend. Go introduce yourself: http://www.mdshooters.com/forumdisplay.php?f=119
Is this gun not banned? If so, cool.
I don't like the stock adapter much. Need more info but I kind of like it. Don't know if it's more than a range toy but I like the concept.
I know people get tired of AR influences on an AK but an upper helps solves obvious problems.
Can get a closer look at 13:48 here.

Not banned to buy in MD, but banned from being imported to the US since it's Chinese.
If you look around, you should be able to find a used Chinese M14 for under $1k. There are a few on Gunbroker, but the prices are ridiculous.
What you can't do though, is modify it to take USGI parts, as was commonly done. Then, you'd be turning it into a clone of a banned firearm. You also can't buy one that has been modified such.

Well it says in the press release they are coming out with two models, a standard and elite. If and that is a big if I were to get one of these I would get the elite simply because they use forging for their components whereas the standard one is cast, everywhere, including the bolt carrier and possibly other critical components. No thank you I will stick with the proven forged method.

The bushmaster semi auto rifle is a bull pup with nothing in common with the AR pattern rifles they make today. That didn't stop MSP from banning a bushmaster ar.

I think that is because of it's wording in the list, so next time some idiot goes off his rocker with a Bushy AR the MSP can't be sued for allowing their sale.
Problem is, that logic or lack thereof could be applied to anything bearing the name, even if the name refers to a "model" like with the originals, in addition to a "make" as with the AR pattern rifle maker.

yup- and believe me that us a good thing
a well done nitrided barrel blows the crap out of a well done chromed barrel
depth of nitriding depending on alloy used can be up to 4 times thicker than chrome, and of equivalent hardness.
4140 and 4150 take to it extremely well with deep case depths of about 60 and 62 HRC hatdness respectively.
Where chrome tends to disappear quickly from the leade of most barrel throats I fire steel cased ammo from, generally the nitrided bores wear much better, with corners rounding on the 'step' in the throat, and tiny tiny pinpricks appearing after prolonged firing instead of complete erosion, keeping geometry the same.
Nitriding is the future
Thing is, this doesn't use an AK action. The recoil spring is on the piston, ala the Sig 55X. That is a VERY significant change, and I think it's enough to let this gun slip through.
That's true, and it's not the only difference between this rifle and an orthodox, 1950's AK design. I would argue that, significant as the recoil spring design is, it's not even the MOST significant improvement (I would venture to say the integrated rails in the upper receiver would catch that distinction.)
I can say that I haven't heard anyone at the factory talking about states they WON'T be shipping to, so my guess is that they expect to get it in. I'll post after I have a chance to corner one of the top dogs and ask about this, see what their thinking is.
(and, btw, the CEO and chief engineer told me that spring design is part of what gives this rifle much improved accuracy over the old 4 MOA AK designs.)
Not much new in this article but it does state it's long stroke.

MikeLee, I know this isn't what you do but...any chance you could post a pic of the BCG?

I would have to go through channels, taking a photo, getting the photo approved, and then getting the forum approved as a place to post a photo... all of which will change in the next very short period between testing production rifles and publishing the results of the testing... in short, there will be plenty of photos posted on various sites before I could get the approvals necessary to post here myself. Sorry.
Really did figure as much. Thought it couldn't hurt to ask, thanks anyway.
BCG= bolt carrier group, yes?
Here you go: Carrier with bolt installed, and carrier with bolt next to it.
