Naughty rifles in MD

Something to be aware of if you shoot in MD.

I just found the following on the State Police site. I guess that the goal is to kill MD competition at least for anyone who didn't begin and own the rifle prior to Oct 1, 2013.

Q. Can we travel to other states for competitions and return with our already owned banned firearms? Can someone come from another state, for competition in Maryland, with a banned rifle?
A: A Maryland resident who lawfully owned the firearm prior to October 1, 2013 may travel with the firearm to other states and return so long as it is not a violation in the state you are traveling to and the firearm is being transported in accordance with the law. A person may not transport an assault weapon into Maryland for target competition unless the person lawfully possesses, has a purchase order for, or applied to purchase the weapon before October 1, 2013. Federal law allows a person to transport a firearm through Maryland but not to Maryland if the firearm is not in compliance with state law.

Often there is an exception for competition, but not in this steaming pile.
