They will send a letter documenting this and allowing the original manufacturer to proceed with the replacement. Finally, BATF has allowed some pre-ban damaged to be replaced with post-ban lowers with numbers outside the ranges given below while retaining the grandfathered status. It has the Standard post front and adjustable two-leaf rear peep sights, 20 inch Heavy Competition HBAR barrel with a 1/7 twist, standard markings on the lower receiver, correct A2 pattern upper receiver with deflector and forward assist, checkered grip, and fixed buttstock with a checkered trapdoor buttplate, carry handle with Weaver. This list does not discern between 'Pre-ban' and 'Grandfathered' as it is very nearly impossible to find that detail of information.

Many people also believe that a serial number can tell you whether or not a receiver is pre- or post-ban.

Disclaimer: This list is correct to the best of my knowledge, however, I accept absolutely no responsibility for the accuracy of this information or for the consequences and/or damages occurring from any inaccuracies.
