    The Young woman who testifiedin Annapolis this morning was on stating she would not able to take her rifle to DE and return to MD with it legally. Does she have it wrong or is it because she is under 21? Lot's of misinformation out there! Hopefully she is not adding to it.

    She shoots her AR-15 competitively. I pretty sure its owned by her parents but the point still remains, the bill hinders her ability to compete.

    A HBAR of some type? Interesting question.

    No permit is required to purchase a rifle or shotgun but no firearm or ammunition may be sold to any minor under the age of 18 without express parental consent.

    So if the firearm was not on the restricted list but now falls on the "copycat" or even under the AR ban, and she had express parental consent to purchase the firearm previously it will be a issue.

    According to the law wording, even if it were an H-Bar, if it has a telescoping stock & a barrel shroud, its "An Assault Weapon". And we all know every AR-15 has some type of barrel shroud.

    (wording is something like "containing any two of the following features: collapseable or folding stock, flash suppressor, barrel shroud, bayonet mount or grenade launcher, etc ..)

    It does crack me up that if you were to get the Consumer Product Safety Commision involved they would want the barrel shrouds to prevent burns.

    The wording is ridiculous! It even says something like "if it doesnt burn your hand when you fire it, its an assault weapon". Talk about stupidity at its finest ... and these people are leading our state & nation. :rolleyes:

    Whether it is a defined assault weapon or not, her parents legally own it prior to 10/1. They are allowed to continue to own and transport.

    The bill sucks and there's a lot of ridiculousness in it, but you might want to give it another read.

    There is nothing in that update discussing the transport across state lines. In the original bill (and so far not removed) it clearly states that if a weapon as defined is taken out of the state, it may NOT be brought back into the state. And THAT is what she is referring to.
