Hey guys, are C & R handguns exempt from the roster? I'm asking because I want to buy a Walther PP and a lot of these are out of state. I know I can't buy a german made one and have it imported here but the French made Manurhin pistols are listed as C & R regardless of age. Can I buy one and have it ship to an 01FFL and get it DROS'd?
