Where does your understanding come from, and where are those separate bulletins?
From my insatiable appetite for "regulated weapons" threads and careful reading of the MD annotated code.
(4) "Assault weapons" has the meaning stated in Public Safety Article, §5-101(p), Annotated Code of Maryland.
The list of guns on § 5-101(p) was last updated by the State Legislature in 2005. There is no mechanism or committee in place to alter this list as there is for handguns.
The MSP and the AG's office cannot make the law, they can only interpret it: hence the rulings about HBARs, open carry of long guns, etc. These are not available on government websites. For reasons beyond my comprehension, the MSP seems to actively avoid making formal rulings and is very unwilling to publish them for the masses to review. Since they are plugged directly into the MSP Firearms office, our FFL IPs do have them and will probably share if asked.
