C & R status, OK I know it's the job of the atf to comfuse the crap out of us but I got tired of hearing contrdictory info on what constitutes a c&r and what removes it's status
now I am more confused than ever
Direct quote from ATF "curio and relic list"
Alteration of the firearm does not change its status. Therefore, a sporting firearm with a surplus military
frame or receiver is a surplus military firearm, because a frame or receiver is classified as a firearm as described in 18Firearm curios or relics include firearms which have special value to collectors because they possess some qualities not
ordinarily associated with firearms intended for sporting use or as offensive or defensive weapons. To be recognized as
curios or relics, firearms must fall within one of the following categories:
1) Have been manufactured at least 50 years prior to the current date, but not including replicas thereof; or
2) Be certified by the curator of a municipal, State, or Federal museum which exhibits firearms to be curios
or relics of museum interest; or
3) Derive a substantial part of their monetary value from the fact that they are novel, rare, bizarre, or from
the fact of their association with some historical figure, period, or event.But the last quote seems to contradict the first, can anyone clarify?
