Ye, it generally banned US production of semi-auto detachable mag rifles with more than one "evil feature:" ie. flash hider (but not muzzle brake or compensator), threaded barrel, bayonet lug(?!), collapsable/folding buttstock, and pistol grip. For an AR15, most people kept the pistol grip.

And you could still use existing grandfathered 10rd+ magazines with them. There were some similar regulations regarding pistols and semi-auto shotguns.

Thanks. That’s what I though.

I live in the people’s republic of Mass. The ‘94 AWB is still in force here. 10 round magazines. Unless you are willing to pay for pre-ban 30 round mags if your style of rifle is pre-ban. I live near the smith and Wesson factory, and there are models built there that are available in CT, but they have to go through a year long approval process to become available here.

It really sucks.
