The serial number look-up says it was made in September 1994. Why is that date familiar?
Something about that date...
Oh yeah! That's when the so-called Federal Assault Weapon Ban kicked in and if your magazines held the proper number of rounds you had to mark them up like that.
OH MY GODS THEY'RE TOUCHING! |
It seems really strange that this twenty year old gun is "modern" and the eight year old gun is "antique". I guess we won't mention that the first year's production of Colt AR-15 SP1's are now C&R....
Compared to the first wonder-nine...
Compared to its larger cousin...
In addition to both being Gen2 guns, they also both have dead Meprolight sights! |
All in all, the Gen2 guns are my favorites. The finger grooves just don't hit my hand correctly on the Gen2.5 and Gen3. I've not played with a Gen4 to see if swapping the back-strap helps. I think I am OK missing the rails.
Not that I am opposed to using a light... or a bayonet...
