These are the repercussions of feel good laws. The MGA wanted to ban AR15 style rifles but decided to allow Colt Sporter HBAR rifles to stay legal for 'sportsmen'. As long as your copycat rifle has HBAR marked in it, it is legal. The 'spirit' of the law says you should be using a heavy profile barrel to copy the Colt 'Sporter', more or less. MSP has been tasked with enforcing a poorly written law.
Hoping it doesn't get worse in '18...
So what would happen if all makers label their AR products as heavy barrel? Will MD legislature ban all ARs altogether without discrimination?
