Bill Summary

Altering the definition of "regulated firearm" to include the previously excepted Colt AR-15 Sporter H-BAR rifle.

AI Summary

This bill alters the definition of "regulated firearm" in Maryland law to include the previously excepted Colt AR-15 Sporter H-BAR rifle. This means the Colt AR-15 Sporter H-BAR rifle will now be subject to the same restrictions and regulations as other assault weapons in Maryland, such as prohibitions on transport and possession. The bill provides some exceptions, such as allowing continued possession and transport of the rifle by those who lawfully owned it before the change in law, and allowing transport to certain facilities for ballistics testing or research and development purposes.
