You can avoid the handgun issue in MD by doing this:
Convert your AR Pistol into a Rifle.
Pull the Pistol Upper off and install a 16" or longer HBAR upper (MD Legal). If the AR Pistol has an SBA3 Brace, you can remove the brace and install a standard M4 collapsible stock.
Get rid of the bullet button. It's does nothing in regards to MD Law.
Now you have a HBAR carbine that is 100% MD Legal. Just can't have a folder (collapsible is ok), or a grenade launcher on it.
SBA3 is $120
HBAR Uppers (No Bolt or Charger) is $300
If you bring a handgun and get into a simple car accident, or vehicle break in, can cause you serious issues of they find a handgun in MD.
When you get back home you can change the AR Carbine HBAR back into a Pistol.
I just assumed that a rifle would be more difficult to bring while traveling interstate, especially into Maryland. I was not aware of the heavy barrel law. So one of my rifles is set up with 16" Heavy Stainless fluted barrel with a compensator threaded on. Is the Maryland legal?
