What ban is this preempting?

I don't get it. Someone please enlighten me. There IS NO BAN!!!! What advantage does a pre-ban AR have over a post ban AR? Why even use the term? Are pre-ban AR's more accurate? Is ammo easier to obtain for a "pre-ban" AR? What am I missing?

He means pre 1990s Clinton ban

So explain to me how a pre-ban AR is different from what I could pick up at a Walmart if it had one in stock? My point is, why even use the term?

There is no ban here, but those who live in ban states are sometimes able to purchase "pre ban" rifles with all the evil features. I assume some ban state ODT members or GA ODT members headed to a ban state would find this rifle advantageous.

I think it also has to with a bayonet lug and threaded barrel.

Under the Clinton Ban criteria (which still exists in some states): , Must have fixed stock only.....Pistol Grip, Detachable Magazine, Bayonet Lug, Flash Suppressor.....pick two.

Ok, now we're getting somewhere. So you are telling me that if I bought this rifle I could tote it with me if I moved to California, with a thirty round mag, a bayonet lug, a flash hider and a collapsible stock and all would be grandfathered? J/m not trying to be facetious but if that were the case, someone could make a lot of money moving to California with a few hundred "pre-ban" AR's

My understanding is that possesion of a rifle with any of these features is illegal in Cali
