How does this qualify as a C&R weapon?
Check out what AIM is selling:

Apparently these are now considered C&R? I mean, thats wonderful, but... how exactly? The oldest ones were made in 1982. And they were produced in such numbers that they definitely cannot be considered a curio.
Anyone have any guesses?

Well, yeah, but why? Isn't the criteria for being C&R "a weapon that is either 50+ years old OR has significant collecting value due to rarity"?0 -
It's probably due to some kind of historical connotation, like the Soviet SKS's that are less than fifty years old but are still C&R eligible. Czechoslovakia was still part of the Soviet Union then.
I'm glad you posted this, it's news to me - I'm getting one!0 -
do you have a copy of the list?, 50 years old is just one of many of the criteria 0 -
It's not on the list yet, not even the newest update. There's a big group of Soviet military weapons that are on the list, though - I bet that's what the deal is with these, too. 0 -
My question is why is the 9X18 on the list, but the 32ACP isn't? 0 -

I would bet the caliber is the main reason this is C&R and not so much the design.0 -
MND,
I was wondering myself. I first saw it when I rec'd. the mailer from Centerfire...so its not just AIM.
One thing I've learned since getting my C&R is that gun laws don't make a whole lotta sense!

...They are now C & R,the ATF list is just not updated yet to show it...it was added to the list.
Why try to figure out why? The ATF is mainly made up of a bunch of dummies, dont believe it? Just try to get the same answer to the same question from two of 'em.
Why can I have a WWII Colt 1911, or SKS shipped to my door, but I cant have a modern long gun left in my possession for more than 24 hours to refinish/repair the stock without having an 01 FFL???
...like I said, dummies...[;)]

It doesn't matter to me, but it's enough that I just sent in a request for a C&R license application[:)]0 -
Why is a Winchester Mdl 88 a C&R, and a Winchester Mdl 100 is not? Yeah, there is the 50 yr rule, and then there is the stuff that the surprise party division of the ATF adds to the list. 0 -
..get ready for the new shipping price for handguns, especially from Aim...add $41 bucks for shipping onto that $199.95 price tag for the CZ 82...just read it on another forum...[;)] 0 -

Ouch, I hope thats hearsay...0 -
Its not hearsay, you can't ship a handgun even C&R to a C&R without being overnight so they usually ship FedEx. Hence 41 BUCKS! 0 -
OOOOWWWWWWW ! Just ran a quote for UPS Next Day Air Saver- 5 lb package from VA to GA, them picking up. $57.92 Methinks THIS C&R holder will be visiting his friendly neighborhood 01 Dealer- who can MAIL a handgun for a fraction of that! 0 -
I think it's worth the extra $$ to have the gun delivered to my door and not have 4473's sitting around gun stores. 0 -
I ordered a CZ-82 on my 03 license and recieved it on 4-11. The overnight shipping was $31.00 not $41.00. It is worth that not to have a form 4473 in a gun shop for snoops. Just a entry in my bound book. 0 -
I just ordered mine from Centerfire Systems. $236 delivered including "hand pick" fee. 0
