Hi all,

I live in Minnesota and we have the Saturday night special law here. It generally bans all gsg 22 lr pistols. Does this one fall into that category or is it legal to be purchased in MN?

Siwen, This rim fire firearm is prohibited in MN due to the melting law. See list of MN prohibited brands● Prohibited: Ruger Wrangler .22 revolvers, Walther rimfire pistols, Cobra, Phoenix Arms, Heritage
Arms, Hi-Point, and GSG rimfire pistols.

I'm not sure about that law. Sorry.

You guys have melting laws?

Andrew B. · Answer

From what I am seeing, Minnesota melting laws are for handguns specifically, and this item is a rifle. So it could be legal, but I would suggest checking with the local FFL, as the law specifically notes GSG rimfire pistols are not compliant, but does not say anything about their rifles.
