post-ban mag question

[sprink]

So, the Ban is over.

What are your thoughts on the magazine part?

Can I now "manufacture" full cap mags for a pistol caliber AR by welding blocks on Uzi mags like Olympic and others used to?

First paragrah in bold. the way I read it is. if it was legal before its legal now. then again.you should call the local AFT office for verification
