Parker Reproduction as Curio or Relic

[Hammer Gun]

I was not aware that Virginia laws had changed, Edgar are you saying that I cannot ship a 1898 or older Parker out of state to a C&R or vise versa? I was not aware of the change if it is the case, Gary

Pre 1898 is considered by BATFE to be an antique. I Don't know how VA handles antiques in their new legislation, but the guy at the Cabelas told me "If it can shoot readily available ammunition..................." UPS Doesn't seem to have any issue shipping your guns to me and back, because I always put "...antique..."

Prior to that recent experience, I would have said the premise that pre 1898 being and antique was universally accepted. I'm pretty sure it still is in Calif.

The NEW YORK "SAFE ACT" is being challenged in court, and everyone I've talked to seem to think there is a good chance it will be overturned.

It shouldn't come as a shock to know that there are a majority of State legislators that will draft, vote on and approve laws which are contrary to the US Constitution. The problem is there are too many who just assume they can do this, and efforts to fight for repeal are often poorly orchestrated, and underfunded. I think GOA may be one of the more effective 'good guys'.
