What about a guy in my position who started accumulating parts to piece one together before all this happened? Right now, the only thing I lack to get a fully assembled lower is the stripped lower. I had one lined up that fell through just before this and now I have an LPK, JP trigger springs, a buffer, buffer tube and buffer spring, a Magpul ACS Stock, sling plate, MOE grip and some magazines. I'm wondering what I'm gonna do. My budget made piecing one together slowly a necessity, to begin with. Now, even if i find a lower to build, where am I gonna get an upper at a reasonable price? This all assumes the AWB passes, of course. If it doesn't or isn't nearly as restrictive as the one Feinstein is proposing, then I don't have much to worry about.
Like others have said, just be patient. (Hope I'm not whistling past the graveyard.)
