My gut pretty much knows the answer, i was just wondering if anyone smarter than me knew if there might be a loophole with the squad carbine or psg type ones. Heres hoping!
Revisiting this. I found the ptr 91 banned as a rifle on the MDSP website, but don't see the receiver listed as allowable on the approved handguns under PTR Industries. Is it buried elsewhere as an allowable pistol? Thanks.
* PSG1 is ok. The bolt group is completely different and wont fit in any banned 91/'plain' G3 clone as the barrel needs an extractor cutout. The bolt group is also **MUCH** more expensive. Expect to spend at least $4k to buy parts alone to build a proper clone.
* MSG90 uses similar bolt group as the PSG1 and should also be ok. It also uses rare uber-expensive parts.
* G3K SBR is ok
* HK51 SBR probably too short to meet the 29" rule easily but otherwise ok.
The latter two are ok as pistols also.
Edit: The PTR32 in 7.62x39 is also good to go in MD (its a GREAT rifle) but not 7.62x51 as the other 91 variants are.
From the MDSP website:
"May I build my lower receiver purchased at any time into a handgun?
Yes, a lower receiver of a banned assault long gun may be manufactured provided there is compliance with federal and other state laws—into a handgun."
My guess is that it can be transferred as an "other" on the 77r.
Wasn't the Cetme allowed? Been a number of years since I kept track.
CETME isn't a clone, it is the basis of the H&K.
Vince at Duffy’s told me he tried to put a bolt from an HK91 into a C308 and it wouldn’t fit.
