AR Lower Question

[Bob Palermo]

With all this talk about a possible new federal AWB (I personally do not think it will happen again), I have a question on my AR lower I just purchased.

According to MA, this is a post ban lower, since it was made in 2012.

1. I assume, once I leave MA, this lower will just be considered your average garden variety lower and I can then put anything I want on it. My only question here is of I build this up to be a MA compliant AR, and file a FA10 as such, will this statement still hold true?

2. Now assume a federal AWB ban comes into effect in 2013 or later. And if I didn't leave MA before then, would my lower be considered a post ban even when I do leave? Or will it revert to pre ban once I leave MA since it was made in 2012? And same question as above, does filling in a FA10 have any impact on this?

Thanks.

Why does everyone keep thinking about legal questions based around an imaginary new AWB that doesn't exist?

It's kind hard to provide a solid answer to an imaginary law. The answer would change depending on what the law says and how it is written. (Assuming it passes at all, which is doubtful).

Because I have lived in this damned state far too long.

I'm relatively certain it would be considered a Post-Pre-Ban-Post-Ban thereby making it exempt from Pre-Post rules for purposes of Post-Ban compliance.

That was the way it was explained to me by a LEO that I know who works part time at the LGS.

LOL

Ok, let me rephrase.

Does a lower being in a state with a AWB have any impact on the lower on the federal level?

The new AWB is going to allow them to shoot your dog and grandpa if you don't turn over your gunz. I read it on infowars...
