They were never banned. Some cosmetic features were banned such as flash suppressors, bayonet lugs, barrels threaded to accept a silencer, and folding stocks.
The basic rifles were manufactured and sold throughout the entire period. |

| AR: ie; America's Rifle, a very functional semi-auto handy for follow up shots on coyote and use in sporting events. Easily adaptable so that a husband and wife on the same shooting squad can trade the 1 AR rifle with each other. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
