I keep hearing and reading that the law in Maryland is that an SBR must have an overall length of 29" at it's longest length.
However, according to the MSP, they don't even consider a rifle an SBR until it's under 26" or barrel of less that 16".
Maryland Law, Criminal Law Article ("CR").§ 4 - 201 (f), defines "short - barreled rifle" as a rifle that
1. One or more barrels with one or both measuring less than 16 inches long;
OR
2. Has an overall length of less than 26 inches AND was manufactured from a rifle either by alteration or modification.
Can someone help me out here? Do I have to keep the rifle over 29" for an SBR even though MSP doesn't classify 29" as an SBR (if the barrel was 16")?
