Even if the ban goes away and nothing like it comes to replace isn't it true that Colt will still only make Sporters and no AR-15's? I think they stopped making them in 1990 right? |
| Sporters, AR-15s, Match targets, all the BushMasters, Olympics, Rock Rivers, Armalites, ect...ect...lol.... same thing, different name. Nobody stopped making anything... They just changed the name... If we are talking about buying a first AR then for the money I would not go with a Pre-Ban Anything...Unless you have the extra money then why not...lol... If your on a budget and this is going to be your first AR then go with a post ban... That extra $500-$1500 for the title of "Pre-Ban", a stock which collapses 3 or 4 inches, a flash hider and bayonet lug could be spent on other goodies and hey if the ban goes away in the fall then all those "Pre-Ban" features can be added then...[jump] |

I like the collapsible stock, bayonet lug could care less, flash suppressor yes that is the only way to go. The brakes on the PostBan Rifles are nothing but vibration and noise. Flash suppressor noise and no vibration. Since I joined AR15 one year ago the prices have dropped on the PreBan AR15 at least I think so. People are cashing in just incase the AWB does sunset. |
