Ya know, that's a damn fine question and an issue I have long forgotten.
Klinton, it seems, was more than anything, trying to be a COMPLETE d!ck about guns when he did that whole thing. I mean this dude must really have hated guns and gun owners.
To tell me I can't have a bayonet lug on the end of my rifle? WTF?
Was there a rash of drive by bayonetings in the old Klinton neighborhood for him to think that one up?

From my take on it i would say the pre bann still guns will be leagle again.
and you will leagly be able to modifey post-bann to pre bann status. ie can leagly use mags with more than 10 rounds.
the bayinot lug being missing realy dosent bother me much.
"not saying i agree with the bann" i just never had a bayiont for a simi auto.
but i do miss the cheep high cap. mags thought.
"found some factory ruger mini-14 20 rounders but i ant paying 90$ for them.
but what i am afaride of is that a new stronger bann will take its place more than likely dressed up as some ant-terrior bill or some thing. like no new sim-autos at all or some thing like that.

Btw. some good may come out of it if there are no new gun laws put into effect.
if the per-bann gun still becomes leagle again the post bann guns should drop in price big time.
Realy who is goint to pay 900$ for a post ban gun if per ban guns are avalible at the same prices
so the ar-15 still thats in pob should drop to 400$ or under if preb are reinstated
the ak still pob at 400$ now should drop to 250$ or so
whos going to buy a sar at the same price as a russain gun?
and the war-saw 10 that take the 10 rounder only should be cheeper than a sks.
so if no other ristrictions are placed on the guns we should see a buyers market.

Hf
the only reasion i can guess for them being banned.
is to make it harder on gum manufactury that way they have to change there process in making the guns.
i all so supose to get the millitary look of the guns???
any way from what i understand and from what i saw the baynet actuly makes the gun less acerat if its installed and the extra mettle of the lug all so makes it less acerat.
the leo sniper still guns coppeyed off the ar-15 had the lugs missing before the bann for just that reasion.
the bann was not realy disined to stop any gun crime it was there just to make it look like some thing was beeing done. the crime bann realy has no efect.
realy when was the last time you heard of a drive by bayneting? or how hard is it to change mags after 10 rounds insted of 20?

The Clinton ban was imposed to add "grey-area" to the legalities of 'assault' rifles. This way, they can twist and bend the written law to suit their agenda if it were necessary.
example: Cops raid drug dealers' house, find no drugs. Now they have to charge him having a SKS with a pistol grip and hi-cap magazine and call it "manufacturing assault rifles".
In any case, it hasn't done anything but make the prices of hi-cap mags and drums sky-rocket. Not to mention the dealers at gunshows marking up 'pre-ban' weaponry without documetation to back it up.
What a bunch of crap...

Legal Again - when assault weapon ban sunsets.
-semiautomatic rifles with folding or telescoping stocks.
-also flashhiders and bayonet lugs (good for flashlight mounts also)
-semiauto shotguns with a pistol grip, extended magazines and folding stocks.
-sale of new over 10 round standard capacity magazines to civilians ( 13 round mags for your 1935 vintage Browning 9mm High Power - for example)
- all those "law enforcement only" marked post ban over 10 round mags will no longer be contraban for civilians, (including police officer spouses)- possession is currently a felony.
I believe that about covers it.
