Does a person break any law by unknowningly buy a banned gun? More specifically, a post-94 Norinco 1911 pistol. After 1994, Norincos imports were banned in the USA.
I found a deal on a Norinco 1911 NIB. Seller said it was imported before '94. To the best of my knowledge, the pistol is legal. But who knows...maybe the pistol was smuggled into the country. Assuming a worst-case scenario, i.e., the gun was somehow smuggled into the US post-94, would I be breaking any gun laws by unwittingly buying a banned gun?
