As Jerry mentioned, a lot of those repros have been sold over the decades, and one wonders (at least I do) how many of those owners have or have not applied and paid for their NFA stamp.

The operative part of the sentence as I read it is "However, certain stocked handguns, such as original semiautomatic Mauser “Broomhandles” and Lugers, have been removed from the purview of the NFA as collectors’ items."
The pistols themselves, Broomhandles , Luger Navies & Artillery Lugers have been removed from Purview of the NFA regs..... the guns themselves so attaching a faithful repro stock or original no longer is an issue as it is outside the NFA regs..... so as long as the gun is on the list of arms listed there is no issue ... I have a Beretta M1918-30 carbine it has a barrel less than 16" but ATF says it has historical interest so it is not a SBR.... it's all in how the ATF lawyers word it....
