Here in MD just about all semi-auto military rifles are classified as "regulated firearms." As with pistols, buying an AR would require me to go through the whole waiting period/State Police background check/extra fees ordeal. It's all rather insulting to a free man, really.
But there's an exception made in our legislation for "HBAR" ARs. Like bolt guns and pumps, heavy barrel ARs are cash and carry NICS rifles. Interesting, eh?
So my question is this: what makes an AR "HBAR"? Do lowers sold with heavy barrel uppers lack the interchangeability that so adds to the AR's appeal or are my state legislators really that dumb?
