I know heavy barrels are required for 5.556/.223. Are they truly not required for non-5.556/.223? Is there a state citation?

I'm not good at looking up laws and such. There are people here who have that stuff memorized.
Suffice it to say, only 5.56/.223/.223 Wilde(really all the same calibers) apply to the heavy barrel rule.

It's .350
Even this barrel is MD legal (with a pinned and welded flash hider, unless you have an SBR). Why? It’s marketed as a HBAR.

Why am I looking at a lower receiver?
Look, any AR15 caliber over .24 is going to require a barrel comparable to a 5.56 heavy barrel. The 350 Legend is .35 caliber. You are fine. I doubt anyone even makes a heavy 350 barrel.

It's your money. BC can be hit or miss, quality wise, but I think they have decent customer service. I don't shoot that caliber, but have read where people have had reliability problems, even with higher quality manufacturers with this round. That's all I got for ya.BC-15 | .350 Legend Right Side Charging Upper | 16" Parkerized M4 Barrel | 1:16 Twist | Carbine Length Gas System | 15" MLOK

BCA is a last resort. Trust me I attempted other alternatives. PLA for instance will only sell me a heavy barrel. And gun broker ("The eBay of guns" lmao) does like to sell guns at all. I swear they had the beginning bid price at $499 and the buy price at $550. I like what is the point of the bid lol. I am going to do post on them with receipts (screenshots) soon enough. I did buy a lower from a gunshop so I avoided the transfer fee. In the future, when I have more money, I will get another upper. This barrel profile makes looking for a complete upper more difficult than it is.

MD only cares about military clones and basically anything seen in 80’s action movies
Werent no such thing as .300 Black or 6.5 Grendel yet so those are fine
Dont we all feel so much safer.
