1994 AWB "watered down" Someone help me out, please

So I was listening to NPR today and they interviewed (I believe) Tom King of the NRA. Whoever it was from the NRA, they did a pretty good job of pointing out some basic fallacies, facts and FBI stats about "assault weapons" and gun violence.

Anyhow, the NPR interviewer offered that the original AWB was "watered down" to the point of being ineffective.

I'll admit that I wasn't paying enough attention in 1994. Can someone more familiar with the legislative process at that point in time please explain to me how the original AWB was the product of "watering down" rather than just being poorly written?
