Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Uncles Estate T/C Contender

According to 4 digit serial number was mfg in 1968, has original sights. Walnut grip appears original but has a Sterling Silver grip cap thats been added. Has a octagan 45/410 barrel that is ported plus has the choke tube and wrench that fits the tube. I added the wrench which was missing, plus the tube has a scratch that apparently was done trying to remove tube without wrench. As far as cosmetics the scratch on the tube is the only minus on this outfit. It will be shipped to your FFL in a faux sheep skin vinyl pistol case that has T/C printed on it. As the other items in my Uncles Estate my Aunt has decided on the prices and as time elapses she may or may not decline any reasonable offers. Pictures will come to U via "text" only......$650 shipped

TTT....appears not much interest...if none shown in couple days, it will be withdrawn

Pm sent

TTT.......have had couple questions...1 being does it qualify for a "C & R" license...any responses to this question

no, not C&R
FFL transfer required

Why not c&R because it's over 50 years old

What firearms are considered to be curio and relic firearms?

Curio and relic (C&R) firearms are defined as firearms which are of special interest to collectors because they possess some qualities not ordinarily associated with firearms intended for sporting use or as offensive or defensive weapons.

To be recognized as a curio or relic, firearms must fall within one of the following categories:

Firearms manufactured at least 50 years prior the current date, but not including replicas thereof;
Firearms certified by the curator of a municipal, state, or federal museum which exhibits firearms to be curios or relics of museum interest; and
Firearms which derive a substantial part of their monetary value from the fact that they are novel, rare, or bizarre or from the fact of their association with some historical figure, period, or event.

ATF has recognized only complete, assembled firearms as curios or relics. ATF’s classification of surplus military firearms as curios or relics has extended only to those firearms in their original military configuration. Frames or receivers of curios or relics are not generally recognized as curios or relics.

Collectors wishing to obtain a determination whether a particular firearm qualifies for classification as a curio or relic may submit a written request for a determination to ATF’s Firearms Technology Branch. ATF’s classifications of curios and relics firearms are published in ATF Publication 5300.11.

TTT....correction: barrel is marked 45 colt, not 45/410, but of course it will shoot the 410 shotgun shell....My Aunt has consented to a reduction in price ..$600 shipped to FFL from me
