I just finished building one for my old boss. Have $800 in the rifle. PSA M4 upper with chrome lined barrel & PSA lower. Magpul MBUS rear sight, magpul MOE rear stock.
I still have one stripped lower that i am going to hang onto. Good thing is that by owning the lower you will be able to put on a pre-ban upper and be fine as long as this coming ban will be like the 94 clinton ban.

As far as parts are concerned, from what I remember about the Clinton gun ban was that "evil guns" were ones with collapsible stocks, pistol grips, removable magazines and removable flash hider/compensator. High capacity magazines were a no no also.
I think it was combination of 3 out of 4 of these made the rifle an "assault weapon", so most AR's of the 90's had the M16A1 stock and the compensator was pinned to the barrel. Once you have a fixed stock and a pinned compensator you only have 2 out of 4 so the rifle was legal to own. Anyone feel free to correct me if any info is incorrect, I was a young whipper snapper during most of this and wasn't really into guns yet.
