The CT AWB language, in an effort to ban as many firearms as possible, states that nothing but your trigger finger can be under the action of a semi rifle. It is not that they are prebans, but that your hand isn't under the action of the rifle. After talking to the dealer more, he clarified his opinion on why these rifles are legal in CT. The M17s rifles that the dealer has all have the earlier, shallower magazine well.
The CT pre ban exemption is based off of the expired federal AWB enactment date, 9/13/94. The list of states where that might sell just keeps getting longer! Sure wish you would revisit the project talked about. From the numbers listed, I am pretty comfortable that any number under P 1500 is preban. ATF approved, and did a one for one serial number swap, where each post ban serial number replaced one preban.
#BUSHMASTER SERIAL NUMBER LIST SERIAL NUMBERS#
In it, had Bushmaster requested to replace several preban serial numbers with post bans, because they had to replace defective receivers. He has posted a memo, that came out during the ban. The K&M website has a bit of information on the M17s, and includes one valuable clue. On the same thread, a former bushmaster employee, who know works for WW, stated that everything to do with the M17s went to Remington with the sale, so WW will be no help.
Since NY and MA have closed their preban exemptions, the only state that matters is CT, so I can understand why they just don't want to be bothered. Basically, Remington has sealed the records, and has no interest in looking the serial numbers up, since the ban has gone away (for now). He has been posting his progress over on the M17 subsection of the Bullpups forum. Just in case you weren't aware of it, the man who runs K&M Aerospace (that started out updating the M17s, and now builds a whole new version) has been attempting to find out the preban serial number range as well.
