Checking my list of guns and I noticed that several of my guns have entered Curio and Relic status by becoming 50 years old. Guns which weren't C&R when I got them.
That's 1971 and earlier now.
I've yet to own a gun from new that became C&R. Twenty years to go on that Glock 21!
I've owned that pistol for thirty years? Where did the time go?
Wow. I bought a Glenfield (by Marlin) 22 rifle in 1970. Still have it.
ReplyDeleteHey... I have one of those that's old enough to be a C&R. I need to look up those rules.
ReplyDeleteI have a Glenfield that is the same as a Marlin 60, as well as a couple Marlin 60s. Great little .22 rifles. Cheap to buy, cheap to shoot. Reliable, good accuracy.
ReplyDeleteSo is that all it takes is a 50 year old weapon and it becomes a curio? I seem to recall a list from the atf that DESIGNATED what was and what was not a curio, or relic. And they seemed to avoid many cool items, bfytw.
ReplyDeleteAsking for a friend.
50 years old or older OR on their designated list.
DeleteYugo SKS's are on the designated list, for example.
