What I'd really like is an AR-15 A1

"Randy" All "Match Target" rifles are Post-ban. Colt actually has serial number cutoffs, these are the last Pre-ban numbers in each series: CC001616, NL004800, TA10100, CHOI 9500, SL027284, BD000134, GCOI 8500, SP380200, LH011326, ST038100, MH086025

Still goes by serial number of the lower receiver NOT by model.

Right; but more info is better than none! Thanks!

I'll probably get flamed for saying this, but doesn't Century make an A1 Sporter? It's < $700 if I remember right.

Isn't a true A1 milled for an DIAS though?

All AR's are unless it is one from Colt who put blocks in later guns.

Plus there is NO such thing as an A1 lower.
