So, after speaking with several dealers today, it's my understanding that AR-10's are NOT on the ban list, and can continue to come in Maryland as-is!? Anyone else know this to be true as well!?

This is correct, and is covered in detail in several threads recently.

Correct *UNLESS* is configured as a copycat, viz., has two or more of the following items: 1. folding stock, 2. flash suppressor and 3. grenade launcher

So it doesn't apply to a collapsible stock?

not a banned feature

try the search feature, under advanced, for subject (instead of body) contains ar-10 (or ar10)

The AR-10 is a whole 5 points less dangerous than the AR-15, and is capable of firing puppy-saving and rape-stopping bullets, so be sure to spread the word to your non-gun-savvy liberal Democrat friends, before they unfairly try to demonize it.

I want to get one as a hunting rifle. Times are changing and I think that the ar-10 platform would be excellent for all sorts of hunting uses. Why use a traditional bolt action when I can use a sleek fancy new ar-10. Plus it would be great for hog hunting which is something I am intetested in doing in the future.

sorry, but as long as MSP gives the following answer to their FAQ on this subject, I wouldnt say its not banned... how much more vague of an answer could they possible give?

Q. In the past, semi automatic AR10 or Heavy Barrel "H Bar" AR rifles - have been considered long rifles and were not subject to a waiting period (per FFL & MSP approved sales). Our team uses these rifles in competitions - are they now part of the ban or considered regulated? They are not on the firearms list.
A: According to existing law and the new law, the Colt AR-15 Sporter H-Bar rifle is exempt from the ban and is still for sale as a long gun.

Unless you hunt in states like PA that do not allow hunting with semi-auto rifles including rimfire ones.

I bought an AR10 this spring, had to do the MSP "Not Disapproved" thing to get it. AND....it's even olive and black colored,,, like those evil State Police cars. BTW,,,,, it shoots well at long distances, too.
