Very few people would know what the public safety and recreational firearms use protection act of 1994 is, but when identified by the colloquial "Clinton AWB", more people would understand what is meant.
You've got a point. However, we can call it the Assault Weapon(s) Ban without mentioning Clinton's name, so it's a little different.

Plus, "ACA" is easier to type and remember than...um, PSRFUPA.
