I'm referring to your Fed Law; your State Laws are no consequence to us Collectors in Australia. We have our own State Laws which vary a good deal. The dispute is happening in my State in Aus.
it's really more about the 'Obsolete Cartridge' area of things; our Law States that the gun must be Pre 1900 and no commercially available Ammo. Pre 1899 or 1900 is relatively easy to establish; no commercially available ammo is more of a grey area as modern equivalents of some calibres are still made; they are however not the same Ammo that these Guns were made to fire. See what i'm getting at?
