MSP GUN CLASSIFICATIONS

[Hog Sniper]

There seems to be lots of conflicting information given by the MSP as to what guns are Regulated and what guns are not. As we all know there is nothing in print to refer to. This topic has just been raised again as to the Saiga 12. I thought that I would start a thread as a resource for opinions/classifications given by MSP for the forum members to refer to. Sound like a good idea?? Should it be a sticky?? I'll start the first post on the Saiga 12 below.

SAIGA 12 CLASSIFICATION
I called MSP today at 3:30 PM and spoke to TFC. Rasinski and asked if the Saiga 12 is regulated. His response. The Saiga 12 is NOT a regulated firearm in the state of Maryland.

Thanks for the info. I still think a FFL's policies are going to override me saying TFC said so unless MSP sends written notification. Not saying you are wrong by any means. I'd like to find one cash and carry near me.

Good...I agree since MD makes a seperation between rifles and shotguns then per their law it's not.

The state cant have it both ways when they state what a rifle and a shotgun is. When they regulated the AK RIFLE it exempts the AK Shotgun.

However....I'm sure given the chance they would have made it regulated back in the day along with the SCAR, ACR, FS2000, Vector and a handful of other "new" evil guns.

Wouldn't make sense for a Saiga 12 to be regulated but an AR-10 is cash and carry.
