We are all spoon lovers here sir.

I wonder why it's not considered a curio or relic.

I tend to be more on the lines of good friends.
No C&R status on full auto stuff. I can somewhat understand their problem. There was a window in the '90's I believe when stuff like that could be logged in but I think anything after the cut-off date has a problem. It's possible it can be saved but we'll see.

Remember the drill sgt in Private Benjamin?

The BATF will probably give a dispensation on this one...and it will wind up in the Police Showcase...

The people who know anything about it are all probably dead...

Why cant they just register it as a Class III? That makes no sense.

It would be criminal to destroy that.

Using that term makes me uncomfortable not knowing it's origin.

The Smithsonian has fully auto and antique firearms. That would be a good place to keep it safe.

Take the firing pin out and it's a pipe with a wooden handle.

Sure "someone" could put it back into opperation, but then that same someone could probably build a new one from scratch if they really wanted to.

I don't understand why it can't be sent back to the maufacture for their museum. There has to be some legal way of doing that. If the Sheriff's depeartment can register it and keep it, it should be able to be donated to a museum.
