  A:

  Joseph, I would contact your local FFL dealer and ask because they'll have the most up to date laws. This has a steel frame Wich meets Minnesota's melting point requirements but under Minnesota regulations it specifically says heritage arms handguns are prohibited. So I would contact your local FFL dealer. Here's a link to Minnesota's regulations... https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/minnesota_restrictions.pdf
