    Hey,

    Anyone heard of the BATFE disapproving a 5320.20 for someone from outside MD wanting to bring their AR-platform SBR to MD for a shooting weekend?

    Buddy of mine was just disapproved today. The reason listed is "MD State Law."

    AFAIK, SBRs of an AR configuration are legal in MD along with HBARs, just no carbine/rifle length ARs since MD law considers all SBRs to be "pistols."

    Even more interesting is that these SBRs are part of a NFA trust that I am a custodial trustee of.

    Any thoughts?

    That’s BS, unless it’s < 29”

    Looks like that's it. One of the three he had on the form was sub 29." The other two are 29 and 29.5. I'll tell him to pull the one and re-submit the others. Thanks!

    Let us know. I’ll be curious.
