It is, but that doesn't change the fact that it's illegal.
What he said. My state (NY) doesn't allow C&R FFL to receive handguns.
Ditto for California.
Ok chief.....there are no antiques.
<Sigh...>
That's odd...I recieved a 'list' with my C&R license
Of course you did. Reread what you first wrote...."There is a list of firearms that don't qualify for C&R even if they are over 50 yrs. old"
The only one of those lists that I looked thru was the one that I received with my first 03 in 2002.
The ATF "curios and relics" list is made up of guns that are (or were) less than 50 years old, but that qualified for a special ATF determination based on some unique feature, rarity, etc. All guns that are at least 50 years old, by the current date, are automatically "curios and relics." Then you add the newer ones that are on the list. There is no list of guns that do not qualify.
The only one of those lists that I looked thru was the one that I received with my first 03 in 2002.
If memory serves, the only real value of that list (for me) was the fact that it documented a number of "special case" firearms that had been given C&R status even though they were not yet 50 years old.

.gov is not limited to the feds. https://texas.gov/ for example.
Well, when you write "Ok chief" it sounds a bit smart-alecky.
Followed by a conclusion that defies logic: "there are no antiques". It defies logic because I quoted the definition of "Antique firearm".Must have changed....local could not get it....county guberment.

So...…..either you didn't read what I posted before commenting, or your reading comprehension failed you.

I responded to Scott's post, not one of your posts.
Finally, someone who gets it right.
I didn't claim to be all knowing, but I do know when my brilliant cut and paste didn't leave anything out.
Make sure the FFL includes insurance pricing when he ships it IF insurance is desired by the buyer. I have had FFL's ship guns that turned out to be not insured. There were no problems, but I tend to like insurance with firearms.
Long gun or handgun?
Remember, insurance protects the seller, not the buyer. A buyer deserves to get the product he paid for, in the condition as described or shown when he agreed to purchase.
Handgun (revolver).' And yes, handgun was listed when I completed their computerized paperwork. I didn't expect this, but I didn't care if the gun got to the dealer in one day, two, or three as long as it got there.
