Columbine for one. Both guns were AWB legal and straw purchased.

Edit: he'll, Sandy Hook. There is a state AWB in place.

North Hollywood shootout. True only the robber died but 18 others were shot. So I would say thats a mass shooting.

'Going postal' gained fame the decade before. They past special laws for post offices because of it. Those going postal were mostly postal employees IIRC.

yup the CT and NY shootings were under the brady ban
plus columbine and the N hollywood one.
problem is, the media is heavily vested in banning guns so their calling every criminal who pulls a gun a "mass shooting" now.
like the taft school shooting, one guy wounded by a shot gun. he was the only target, kid came there just to shoot him.

The fact that during the clinton gun ban of 1994 all you had to do was remove the flash hider and bayo lug and you were gtg makes your question irrelevant.  However, I suspect that is not the point you were trying to make.

When I see some quote about "murders with 'assault weapons' went down 3.2% during the clinton gun ban of 1994" I take it with a grain of salt and the understanding that an AR without a flash hider or bayo lug was not considered an "assault weapon" so it didn't show up in the numbers.
