Got my CC&R today. Took just over 30 days. The current administration has done well on reducing the wait time.

Don't know what my first by will be. Likely something made by Colt. And something that the ex would have been upset with.

I have one of those early Chinese 56 SKS. Bought it in the late 80s for $85 (new in the box) and a case of Norinco ammo for $20. It is a well built gun. Since my local range doesn't allow steel jacket bullets, I have been pulling the bullets, dumping the powder and reloading. With a scope I can cover a group with a quarter. I recommend you buy one. I thought about buying another, but my safe is full.Peak C&R availability has well passed but there are some things still out there. These guys: https://www.classicfirearms.com/c-r-eligible/ are easy to deal with. I suggest the CZ-82. The one I got from them was much better than I was expecting. I'm giving the SKS a look.
Took 6 weeks to get mine back but the Christmas/New Years holidays were during the 6 weeks.
That's awesome. Do you guys still see a benefit for that type of license? From my (very limited) observation it seems most sellers don't know the rules / recognize C&R licenses. Maybe I'm wrong.
If you are a fan of older firearms, a C&R is the ticket. Currently, anything manufactured before 1969 is eligible, but always check with the seller. As noted above, some sellers don't have a clue. I had one refuse my C&R because the gun was not "original" because it had been reblued! Don't even argue with that type mentality.
