The AR-15s are in a weird illegal limbo of the registrar's making, aye. The judge in front of me was fine with that though.
In the end, that is what is at stake. As stupid and ill thought out as the Gun Laws are, as long as the Judges ignore what the Laws say, in favor of what they understand the Laws to be meant to mean, anyone who ends up in front of the wrong one, will be fooked!
