Hi this is my first post here.  I have owned an DPMS Panther Classic 16.  I was very happy to put on a telescoping stock today.  My question is when do you guys expect to start seeing new "Pre-Ban" style AR-15s being shipped out to dealers?  Would manufacturers already started a few days before the ban ended to start new productions or will they start today?  I emailed DPMS to give me some insight into their plans for new models because of the expiration of the AWB.  I am looking forward to hearing good news from them and your suggestions.

Thx all and its a happy day :)

I expect to see my 2 Colt AR15 A3 LE6920's & my 2 Bushmaster M4 Patrolman's here at MY HOUSE as soon as FedEx gets them to my FFL up the road from my place

I just got into the habit of buying the lower and upper separate so I could get the features I wanted.  I got my first AR 3 years into the ban, so I had to buy my upper separate of the lower to get the bayo stud and flash hider.

I have never bought an AR complete from the local fun store cuz I didn't like the idea the ban.

LOL.  I bet a lot of people did this.  I put a preban upper on just to see how it shot.  I wasn't paranoid that the ATF was watching my every move and waiting for me to screw up.
