Came across a product and it got me thinking...
MDs "assault long gun" ban and copycat tests apply only to semi-automatic long guns. According to the MDSP Firearm Search Page (https://mdsp.maryland.gov/Organizat...LicensingDivision/Firearms/FirearmSearch.aspx) the first test of legal or not is:
So the product that sparked my thinking is a changing handle and gas key that makes an AR require manual cycling for each round therefore no longer semi-automatic. https://kalikey.com/product/ar15-kali-key/
So the questions are:
1) Could a dealer install this device or something similar rendering a previously "banned" semi-automatic rifle transferable?
2) Could any dealer do this or must they also be licenced as a manufacturer?
3) Instead of installing a device, what if an essential part of the semi-automatic system was removed making it no longer function as a semi-automatic rifle? ie a gas tube for an AR or a gas piston for an AK.
