Mike that is great but the current law is "in or before 1898 manufacturer" so my reading is 1897 or before not before 1899.
and the ammunition for the firearm is no longer manufactured in the
United States and is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade.
I know many consider a Parker made in 1987 or before as an antique but if the ammunition (shotgun shells) are avalaible is it an antique per the NFA and the ATF??

Craig, "in or before 1898" includes December 31, 1898 and earlier. The truth of the matter is that C&R includes a bunch of modern guns and we shouldn't rock the boat about antiques or C&R could be taken away from us. C&R is a gift to law abiding collectors that most polititians have no clue about.

I couldn't have said this better myself.

Getting a C & R is one of the best things I've done. I really like the fact that Parkers & Foxes are specifically listed as C & R qualified guns. The C & R is especially helpful when you live in a state with universal background checks which require every gun sale to go through an FFL transfer & background check.

I'm just hoping the grabbers in Washington don't wake-up about the C & R and take it away from us.

Sorry about the politics. But there are two things standing in the way of all this:
