I dont believe you really read my post correctly. I cant see how you are getting that I misunderstand the statute.
I believe we have the same interpetation. All I was trying to point out is that a pre 1899 gun is an antique-no matter what it shoots. The statute he was referring to was referring to replicas. If you are selling a replica Colt SAA Calvary in .45 Colt (all were made prior to 1898) it is a modern gun, for instance. Maybe I was unclear in my post.
If you possess a 12 double barrel sawed off Shotgun(Barrel less than 18") that was made prior to 1899 how do you perceive this would be viewed by the BATFE?
