Typical Fed Regulation; very confusing. I can't tell you what is a C&R but I'm very confident that a pre-64 M70 and a Parker Repro aren't and I'm not about to risk money and my firearms to find out.
"Please note that firearms regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA) may be classified as C&R items, but still may be subject to the provisions of the NFA."
I would argue that a pre-64 is a modern firearm regardless of its age and, as such, does not constitute a curio or relic, as the same firearm is still in production. This really isn't a fight worth fighting and the potential downside is far greater than the upside of being able to ship without an FFL. But hey, I'm sure that some of the money spent on attorneys to argue the point will be well spent by your attorney. on Parkers.
Bottom line: if I were a dealer I would not ship a M70 or a Parker Repro to a C&R license out of prudence. Last thing I want to do is get into a pissing contest with the BATF.
