Post-Ban Lower Receivers
Were lower receivers available for sale during the 1994 AWB?

Yes they were, in fact it was during the AWB that people started buying lowers and building ARs en masse.
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
Almost every shop I went in to had at least a few in the case. Back then Bushmaster was king, if you wanted to go cheap it was Olympic arms.
Don't be stupid!!!!!
Thanks, all.

Bushy retailed for $99, back then I was buying a no name called "Stag" for $49. Now they are worth more than the Bushy.Originally Posted by beast556
I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.
My dad bough four SKS rifles for $89 each when we lived in southwestern Kansas about six months before the ban, "on a gut feeling" he said. I was a kid and the ban expired when I was in the Army and I was too poor to buy anything cool.
I missed all the fun.... So if lowers were available during the AWB, what wasn't available? Not much of a ban if you can still by the actual firearm part...
'Unless a law-abiding individual has a firearm for his or her own defense, the police typically arrive after it is too late. With rigor mortis setting in, they mark and bag the evidence, interview bystanders, and draw a chalk outline on the ground' - Judge Benitez , 2019, Duncan v. Becerra.
'One of the ordinary modes by which Tyrants accomplish their purpose without resistance is by disarming the people and making it an offense to keep arms.' Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, 1840.
About the only difference between a pre-ban AR and a post-ban was the post ban lacked a bayonet lug and a flash hider.
When I was assembling AR?s during the ban I would usually take a standard barrel and grind off the lug and then permanently attach a muzzle break.
so basically an earlier version of california and a couple other states "features" ban?

It really wasn't a rifle ban. It was a "features" on a rifle ban. And mags were limited to 10 rounds for everything.
All it did was make a "pre-ban" 17 round mag, like a G17 mag, that sold for $20 before the ban, sell for $150 or more during the ban.
