    Are they legal in MD? 27.8 overall length. 19" barrel. Holds more than 10.

    Should be - the limit only applies to removeable magazines if I am not mistaken. That M&P12 has a fixed magazine.

    That being said, they are over $1,000. I just assume have a former police Remmy 870 with an 18"

    To be fair to the OP, centerfire rifles with fixed mags > 10rds are banned here. Shotguns with them, on the other hand, are perfectly fine.

    So they are legal. Does anyone have one for a honest opinion??

    Aesthetically it looks like a S&W parts bin shotgun. I am sure some will love it others will hate it but the "Space gun" tactical shotguns out there the market is getting crowded which is not a bad thing.

    There’s this to at least be aware of. I’d already bought my 2020 mfr’ed IMI TS-12 before S&W jumped into the market with their M&P 12 …
