Does a C&R receiver/barreled action require an FFL01?

I have seen them repeatedly say that a bare receiver is not C&R, it is the FAQ and in 85-10. I have yet to see anything that says a barreled action is not.

An otherwise unmolested barreled action is capable of firing, and can be put back to original config by pretty much anyone with the parts and a screwdriver. No special skills or tools required, for the most part.

And again, every mail order place has sold, or in the case of Samco currently sells barreled actions as C&R, and has been for about 2 decades.

Not to mention that 85-10 is about importation.

However, ATF Ruling 85-10, which discusses the importation of military C&R firearms, notes that they must be in original configuration and adds that a receiver is not a C&R item. Combining this ruling and the definition of C&R firearms, the Firearms Technology Branch (FTB) has concluded that a firearm must be in its original condition to be considered a C&R weapon.
It is also the opinion of FTB, however, that a minor change such as the addition of scope mounts, non-original sights, or sling swivels would not remove a firearm from its original condition. Moreover, we have determined that replacing particular firearms parts with new parts that are made to the original design would also be acceptable-for example, replacing a cracked M1 Grand stock with a new wooden stock of the same design, but replacing the original firearm stock with a plastic stock would change its classification as a C&R item.

Case in point: there's a Mosin barreled action for sale and seller says "Cash and carry with C&R & COE"

Those that have both a C&R and COE would you have any qualms about buying this cash and carry?

I would not attempt to buy it cash & carry myself.
