False Statement

From Live5news.com in Charleston SC:
"The AK 47 was illegal for any civilian to own until 2004 when the Federal Assault Weapons Ban expired."

My reply
Sir:
I purchased my first one in 1988 from an FFL, & filled out form 4473,
The 1994 AWB did not make the guns illegal, aside from cosmetic features, & ones owned prior to the ban could be sold traded etc.

Thank you
