Mossberg model 500 Bullpup assault shotgun

Aren't the Mossberg 500's pump shotguns?

That list would be a lot longer by now if gun grabber Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, had been elected Governor.

Most of the guns listed are legal in the substantially still-free Old Dominion (Va).

Funny that the Mossberg bullpup is on that list. I saw one in a pawn shop not too many months ago and was tempted to buy it and yes it is a pump.

You moved from CA to MD?

Hmm, you can almost make a case for CA because it is so amazingly beautiful - never been to MD, but hard to imagine it is comparable.

All of the socialism and none of the coolness that is CA?

What were you thinking?

You moved from CA to MD? What were you thinking?

Well, for one thing I don't speak spanish.

Actually, aren't those considered "regulated firearms", i.e. you can still own them but you have to be "NOT DISAPPROVED" by the State Police, a la handgun purchases.

Or, is it the roster of the new proposed AWB ban?

Pretty sure that as of today you can own AR-15s and such in Maryland, they just don't make it easy to do so....

greyhound , I should have posted the website this came from in my first post...........sorry guys. Listed below is the Maryland State Police website where I obtained this list.

Please don't think I was implying that MD is a gun friendly state.

Whenever I think of MD firearms statutes, I remember that the state would rather that citizens own no firearms, and if they can't prevent that, will make it as difficult as possible for them to legally own them.

Gotta beat back this state AWB, then move on to the sunset of the Federal AWB.

DorGunR-

Always glad to have another like minded person here in MD!

PS: if by chance you are on heart medicine, please take it before you see the prices at MD gun shops.

As Chaim has said, supply and demand!

greyhound I do take medication for high blood pressure but as far as seeing the gun prices.............too late. I brought a few guns with me from California, I've been here just over a year and I've purchased two handguns and a rifle since I arrived.
