thanks for the reply...

so does that mean all that stuff on the rifle is illegal now? or what? Also, the rifle that im getting for christmas will be a post-ban rifle since we just bought it new at sportsmans wearhouse, right?hat

You live in AZ - a free state.
Don't worry about pre-ban/post ban.
So far as it matters, there never was a ban, cause the ban is over.
When you get your rifle, make sure it has flash hider, bayonet lug, and collapsible stock.

And don't let anyone hose you on the price because it is "preban".
Same goes for mags.

Why not build your own?
Cheaper and custom built to your specs.

mags & ammo

there are a lot of accessories for an M4 style carabine...such as rail systems, flash lights, laser sights, foregrips, optics,...

A 3-5 day carbine class.

Don't do any 'upgrades' till after you've taken the class.
