Question about "The List"

[Moress]

Hello,

So I'm thinking about adding a revolver to my collection maybe in a few months. I'm looking at getting a Taurus model 66, stainless with a 4" barrel. My question is, on the PRK's list, it only shows the 6" SS model, I was almost sure that I could still legally buy the 4" gun, but when I went into the gun store to get a price, he said he couldn't order the gun because that specific gun was not on the list, and he could only order the 6" gun for me. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the wording on the list, but I thought if it was the same model, but with slight modifications to the one on the approved list, you were good to go?

P.S. What are your guys' opinions on the Taurus 66?

It is either on the list or not on the list. The Taurus 66 is not on the list. yes.. It makes no ficken sense

Well, the 6" is on the list, but the 4" is NOT on the list, but they're the same gun, isn't that how it works??

[RollingCode3]

Nope. Like i said, it is either on the list or not on the list. There is no exception.

[Moress]

Well... That sucks

[FuzzyBrows]

if u think that sucks. try not getting the finish of a gun that you want but couldnt get because of the list lol.

If the guns have only minor differences, the manufacturer can pay to add another model to the roster without having to test it. But it still needs to be on the roster.
An example would be the Rossi 461 and 462. They're snub .357 revolvers. The only difference is the finish, 461 is blued, 462 is stainless. Rossi didn't pay, so the 462 is not on the roster.

Exactly.
