That is a post ban with no bayo lug, no falsh hider, and no pistol grip. A pre ban would run about $1K.

I have an ar15 that i assembled myself legally. It’s a post ban. AR15s are mentioned too. But if they lack those features, they’re not banned. Hence, ARs and AKs are not banned at all. Just ARs and AKs with two or more evil features.

Are you sure they’re not pre-ban? That’s what I’ve always assumed when I saw those for sale.

So, why can i buy this one (it’s even a norinco) legally?

Because the ban doesn’t affect them unless they’re ak47s/uzis that also have the features listed. That’s the way it’s enforced, anyway.

this hysterical piece makes reference to Uzis and AK47s, which are not banned by the assault weapons ban.

Sure they are. There's identified by name at 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(30)(A)(i),(ii).

Well, you gotta stick with the formula.
