I know this has probably been covered in a more recent post but I can’t seem to locate one. I’d like to build a AR-15 .300 Blackout in 16” for deer hunting. From most accounts here it appears this is a legal AR in Maryland. PSA even lists the barrel as heavy, which I understand is one of MSP’s requirements. That said, PSA had a complete AR-15 .300 BO in 16” for sale recently so I ordered it. I received an email stating it was a copycat and they could not ship it to Maryland. I’m confused. The Anderson MFG .300 BO is listed as not banned on the MSP website while the Bushmaster .300 BO is listed as banned. They look like the same setup to me. The PSA is not listed. Is this, or is it not a copycat? I might try simply ordering the upper and see what happens (when it’s back in stock), but I want to be sure it’s legal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Not copycats. One reason I don't shop at PSA.
You could try ordering a lower(shipped to your FFL) and then ordering an upper separately.
