People don't care about the laws anymore, the people making them are criminals so it's kinda out of style.

You mean Fostech and Franklin armory are engaging in criminal behavior?

He means people making the laws.
Gotcha, the comment was a little vague and left a lot to the imagination.
Isn't that the whole idea though? The more of the populace that they have leverage over with their laws the more power they wield over us. It's when their laws no longer have any meaning or value to us that the tables start to turn. I imagine that it's hard to enforce laws that nobody understands or even takes seriously.

No grandfathering in MD on binaries. They are absolutely banned/illegal to possess.
Facts don't count in an emotional argument
Just out of curiosity, has anyone heard of a case where someone was yet charged with possession of a banned rapid-fire trigger device? I've been paying attention, but I haven't heard of any case yet.

As long as you sent a application to the ATF before the bills date of effect, all binary triggers purchased before that date are legal. but you cannot sell it inside the state.
I believe you are incorrect. The letter to submitted to ATF bought you one additional year, at which time (October) you had to have documented approval from the ATF for continued possession. Since the ATF stated that it was not in a position to issue approval, none were forthcoming. So, the end effect is that possession of any rapid-fire trigger devices were banned (in Oct 2018 if no letter was sent to ATF, and October 2019 if one was sent).

I shot a semi/binary/full auto 9mm Colt AR SMG and wasn't impressed with the binary function. I'm not a big fan of full auto in general, for what it's worth and other than wanting something along the lines of full auto while skirting NFA regulations don't see much of a point to it. I'm still considering doing a 9mm semi/binary AR build with a spare lower I have just to get into it before the hammer drops on the binary thing.

Where's the beef?
The hammer already dropped on the binary (and bumpstock) thing. Oct 1, 2018: no more purchases, and if they didn't send a letter to the ATF for those already owned. Oct 1, 2019: nobody can possess them at all, regardless of purchase date, not even if they sent in a letter to the ATF.
Technically according to the law that went into effect. It includes any combination of parts that you put into a semi automatic weapon that could potentially increase the rate of fire.
That includes any upgraded springs, triggers, bolt carrier groups, buffer weights, lube, etc..etc..? Or am I reading the law incorrectly? So technically if you modify the firearm in any way you've probably created a banned weapon.
What a stupid stupid law! Most people are probably breaking it and don't even realize it.

They're still for sale. (Granted, not to CA, CT, DC, FL, HI, IA, MD, NJ, NY, RI, and WA, but still)
Confused by this tbh.
