That's for rifles.there is no such prohibition in any of the CMP paperwork you sign when buying
There is a specific prohibition in the agreement to join the 1911A1 lottery as to purchase (of a 1911A1) for resale.
It only applies to the 1911A1 pistols in the current inventory.
It was put into place due to demand far exceeding supply, and the potential for some high-dollar specimens being discovered in the crates. You put your name in the hat, it was meant to be fair to all concerned. Which is also part of the "why" of how two NICS checks were run as well. One was run to ensure no one in the lottery pool was Prohibited, and the one at the end, at your LGS, because 18 USC 922 required it.
