If you bought it before 1994, it is a pre-ban.My Colt H-Bar has a large hole trigger pin. Is it a pre-ban AR-15?
Here is an updated HBAR data base. You fits into the later MH029XXX features rather then the earlier type. Trigger pins were switched to the bigger size starting with MH 006600.

I bought one cause they were banning the Colt AR 15...never really interested in them until the government ban.My Colt H-Bar has a large hole trigger pin. Is it a pre-ban AR-15?
Don't say that out loud...during the ban there was a 10 yr prison sentence and huge fine for "unfucking it". They put hardened steel in there for that reason. So I'm sure It was definitely after the 10 yr ban, was lifted.Mine also had the neutered lower that wouldn't accept a full auto carrier, that I had it unfucked years ago and put a colt Full BCG in it. Specialized Armament did a great job on that deal right here on Phx.
