Anyone confirm or deny this?

I was told that all Colt manufactured SAA revolvers (even new ones) are considered Curios by the ATF and are thus C&R qualified. Anyone know for sure if this is true or false?

I see a discussion from 2013 saying all 2nd Gen Colts up to 1976 are C&R but has this changed to include 3G models?

  I have not heard of any change that would include 3G or 4G SAA's as C&R's. They will have to wait until they are 50 years old.

  2nd Generation models "Yes"; 3rd Generation models "No".

  In addition to the "50 yr old" criteria, there are guns that the ATF put on the list without regard to the 50 yr criteria. Here is part of the list-

  As said, the SECOND model, made 1956-1976, yes. There is no mention of the 3rd. Anyone that tells you they are, ask them to show you where it says that.
