I'm an FFL dealer in Iowa, 15 miles from the MN border and I can't sell any of the so-called "assault weapons" to a MN resident. Not sure when that went into affect. MN also requires a permit to buy the "assault weapon" and the FFL has to report the sale to local LE.
MN is chipping away at the 2nd Amendment.

I don't know how sales to a MN resident would work, but an "assault rifle" purchase requires the same purchase permit that is required for a handgun. A MN carry permit satisfies the requirement.
According to federal law, a long gun is still a long gun even if a purchase permit is required. Being an "assault rifle" should not affect the legality, but maybe the purchase permit does? No idea.
