I bought one. Not to comply with ban state regulations but because I like conventionally styled rifles. I can use my 450 BM and 350L uppers on it to hunt as well as any other AR upper. I do have ARs and AKs as well. I also have a Mini 30, M1 carbine, M1a, Saiga sporter and Keltec SU16. I just like conventionally styled rifles.
