Just curious...........

if someone were to lose their entire handgun collection due to fire, theft, whatever, and actually had them insured at replacement value or had a ton of cash in the bank, would there be an exemption to the one per 30 days rule? Or would they have to spend two years or so buying 25 - 30 handguns (assuming that they would purchase all new. I know PPT's don't have that restriction)?

You'd be acquiring new guns in that situation. I don't think there's any exemption for them being replacements.

Somebody else can pipe up here - does possession of a valid, current COE allow bypassing the 1 new gun in 30 days limit? (I think it may, not sure...)

COE with a C&R exempts you from the 1-in-30 rule.

I'd be more concerned if some of the older models would be exempt from the cert list.
