AK74 cleared by msp?

Tenhoff · Jan 6, 2017

So engage armament in rockville just got word back a few days ago that the Aresenal slr104-31/ak74 type rifle is cleared by msp for purchase. They've got some in now too. But wouldn't that mean that the 74 variant as a whole is legal? or just that specific rifle?

SLR 104 Dupe.

You're a few days late on this. But don't rock the boat just yet....i.e. Sig brace. Let some people get them in their safes.

Well I understand the ruling came out a few days ago on the slr104-31. My question is, does this mean that other brands of the 74 type rifle are good to go. Like If I wanted to order an AK74 from atlantic that's a little more affordable, are those still good? Wouldn't they be considered copycats of the SLR104?

How many threads are there on this now? Lol
And no other FFL will test the water with any other 74 Variant. At lest I don't think.

Yeah, but at least there is a letter here by MSP regarding this specific one.

The best thing is to go to Atlantic and see what they will sell you. No one will push the boundaries on this one. It does not mean other brands are GTG.

ONLY the SLR104FR is legal atm. When I picked mine up, the gents at engage told me they (being maryland gun owners) have to fight for legality one model at a time. Like how the galil ace was legal, then it was not because MSP is claiming its a copycat. Well now it has to be proven to not be a copycat. Can't wait to get out of this state. It's impossible to find 30rd ak74 mags and cz scorpion mags. :/

When the MSP has been givin' the okay fer certain guns, it's been by specific model only.

Sorry for the ignorant question. Does a perspective buyer need an HQL or is the SLR104-31 a cash and carry purchase?

No HQL, it is Cash and Carry

if a rifle is legal for sale in MD it is cash and carry

I just heard about a few AK models being legal yesterday. I am super excited because I had given up on getting one as long as I live in MD. Since the m90s are apparently discontinued currently I am looking forward to hearing if anyone gets a dealer to sell them an Arsenal 5.45

What other models?

Well the Arsenal SLR104-31 and the Zastava m90np so far. There are letters approving both. The MSP seemed to approve those with no problem so I wouldn't be surprised if some other similar variants were also approved.

300blkprs · Jan 8, 2017

not that im complaining about gaining another gun to be purchased, but this is truly testament to the stupidity of MD's laws......

jkeys · Jan 8, 2017

I want to know where the line in the sand is drawn. What about Yugo or Chinese AK style rifles where the receivers have different Rivet patterns than a real Russian Kalashnikov? If the receivers aren't compatible doesn't that effectively make them not copycats using the MSP criteria?

I plunked down the cash for an Arsenal 5.45 (the SLR104-31 that was approved by MSP) last week at 2A Sales and Supplies. They didn't have any in stock at the time, so I have to wait until late this week to pick it up.

I am heartened to see that the powers to be in Pikesville have actually issued a determination based upon interpretation of the regulations passed by the legislature. Perhaps that's the real effect of a change in the governor's office?

AK74 cleared by msp?
