I just copied the exemption text out of the ATF document I referenced...

It's interesting. There really doesn't seem to be much rational thought behind some of the regulations.

I'm just thankful that there have been exemptions for the firearms we collect in respect of the history they embody.

It's painful to me to encounter Lugers that have had their stock lugs ground off in an effort (in the time before these exemptions) to make them "legal".

The situations that bother me are ones where there is a wide possible interpretation left by things that are not clearly defined in the rules.
