      Critique my AR build!

      Thought it would be fun/insightful to get your unbiased and unfiltered input into my current build. Was choosy with parts and took the time to find deals/ get what I knew I really wanted. That said, flame away! Also, opinions on any shortcomings or potential issues or feedback also appreciated...

      Transferring HBAR made from stripped lower between MD residents

      I know this thread has come up before, but the information in it is either very dated or the thread is just a mess after the first page. Admins- please delete if you feel i'm kicking a dead horse. I am trying to get some clear answers on how MD law views transferring of an HBAR in 5.56/.223...

      Bushnell Forge 2.5x-15X50 FFP on sale $399 - thoughts?

      $399 on Midway for FFP and $349 for SFP. Seems to be a clearance sale for this model. I think they are moving away from the 2.5x in favor of 3x and up. Thoughts on the forge line, specifically this 2.5x-15x50? https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1020052981...

      TX to MD Transfer

      I have a Colt rifle marked "Sporter Match HBAR" on the lower. Is this legal to ship in with a telescoping stock, 14.5" permanently attached FH barrel, pistol grip, bayonet lug, and detachable magazine? The barrel profile is a government carbine length, and not "HBAR" by traditional...

      Faxon Gunner Barrel legal in MD?

      I know there are restrictions on rifle barrels in Maryland. The barrel has to be a heavy barrel (which I can't find a solid definition for). I was wondering if anyone knew whether the Gunner Profile barrel from Faxon was legal in MD for an AR rifle build? They define Gunner Profile as: Gunner...

      Bushmaster lower AR sale

      Hi everybody, Ive been looking to sell a few guns and one is my Bushmaster lowered 20" HBAR. Is Bushmaster still banned by name or would it go through with a 77r? I've asked around and nobody seems to know for sure. If not, I guess the best option is to sell it as a rifle kit and keep the...

      Ruger AR-556 8511 vs. Stag Arms 15 M4 HBAR

      The Ruger 556 8511 has a cold-hammer forged barrel and is lighter at 6.7 lbs. The Stag Arms 15 M4 (Model 1) is around 7 lbs, but has a 1/7 twist, a chrome lined barrel, a removable carry handle, and is supposedly mil-spec. I have seen both going for around the same price, so that really isn't an...

      First AR15 for <1k

      Hi, guys, I'm new to guns, especially AR15. I've been reading a lot here and other sites, as I want to get an AR15 for under 1k. It seems to me Colt 6721 was the clear choice a year ago. Has that changed? Since we Marylanders don't have a lot of choices due to hbar, I'd like to ask those...

      Worth upgrading my upper?

      Hey all. A few years ago I put togehter a Colt HBAR clone with a DSA A3 upper and a Rock River 20" barrel. It's a great rifle and pretty accurate. Now I'm putting together another HBAR with a cheap 16" barrel and got a decent deal on a stripped BCM upper. I'm wondering if it's worth replacing...

      Building an HBAR post 10/1

      I'm looking into building a new rifle, I'm aware that I need to use a Heavy barrel, labeled HBAR. Are there any other requirements I need to meet? I Remember hearing all about the "3 evil features", I'm not sure what the final passing of the bill entailed. Can you still have a 6 position stock...

      HBAR vs. other barrel profiles

      I'll ask my wise brothers for some feedback on something that has been nagging at me since SB281 went into effect. Why would an HBAR profile be acceptable for an AR build (80% or stripped lower) or if purchasing a complete rifle from a shop vs. illegal if using government, light or pencil...

      Hypothetical questions - replacing barrels post 10/1, unmarked HBAR barrels

      first question- you have a non-HBAR, 5.56, pre-Oct. 1, 2013 registered AR15 that needs to have the barrel replaced (shouldn't matter why). Can you replace it with another non-HBAR barrel today? Second question - many "HBAR" barrels are not marked as such on the barrel itself. Does it HAVE...
