MA complaint AR's have a pistol grip and detachable mag. so there for it is not by definition an "Assault weapon", as it does not include a second "feature".. and NO WHERE in the AWB law does it state that an "Assault Weapon" is defined by having similar parts like Maura outlined in her new BS "rule". The Colt AR-15 is on that list. Our rifles may be "copys" of the Colt but they are not Colts, and again no where in this law does it say a gun "copy" is illegal..
Some one needs to sue her now!
