Now that the ban is gone, shouldn't we start referring to the ban distinctions in that manner? Since post-ban could now imply after the ban ended? Edited to add: Don't flame me for this one. |

i had to make the point in another thread (don't ask) that what were pre-bans to most of us are STILL pre-bans to those in the 'prison' states. For any of the states that have their own AWBs and will allow a pre-94 rifle or lower to have the bad characteristics, then to the people in those states, there is such thing as a pre-ban. i think the term pre-ban should still be used because they were pre-ban in a sense that they were around before any ban on the ARs. rifles built during the ban with no lug, FH etc. should be called "Ban-Built" rifles. most likely the uppers will be referred to as Ban-Built. everything else now should be called post-ban. whatcha think? |
| I thought we all aggreed to call them "Sport Utility Rifles" or at the very least "No Ban" rifles, since they're under "NO BAN" anymore, except for the Kommunist States where there is still a ban in which case they have to deal with "post bans" of grow a pair and move to a Free State. |
you couldn't even read the three simple sentences i wrote, huh? you saw the topic and had to respond without reading. by the way, we pretty much agree with each other. |
You mean I was suppose to read something???

That does make sense, however, when I hear AR15 I think Colt...and then the Armalite ppl. say the Colt is a copy, even though all an Armalite is is an Eagle Arms that bought the name Armalite, not the real Armalite, and then an arguement starts...and then...what was the question? 
|
I'm in the same boat...even though post ban kind of makes sense, I think the term applies to bastardized guns of the past ten years. If anything, I think No Ban is going to apply best. |

I was at a couple of gunstores on Saturday and the term most used was "no-ban." On an intersting side note, R-Guns has several big tupperware tubs full of DPMS and Colt lowers with collapsible stocks on them. Another store I went to had a half dozen M4 stocks and a dozen stock wrenches and they had swapped out the fake collapsibles for CAR-15 collapsibles with no upcharge. They wre even selling the removed fake collapsibles for $10 each just for the hardware! Dawg |
