Transporting an AR Pistol/'firearm'
I know an AR pistol falls under the same rules as transporting a handgun in MD, but... suppose said AR pistol has a VFG added. This changes it's classification to a 'firearm' according to the ATF (assuming it is at least 26" in oal).
Does this affect the ability to transport it? Would MD law still look at it as a pistol, or would it no longer be considered a pistol, but a firearm and not be affected by the limited transportation rules regarding handguns?
