1936 Matching Luger

It is possible, in this particular case, to rewat one of those guns, if all documentation is present.
In the past, ATF has been known to accept the paperwork from programs like this as an original "registration" of the gun. I once rewatted a beautiful 1918 Winchester BAR by using a Dept. of the Treasury document aknowledgement that the gun had been dewatted. With this document in hand, I showed that the gun was a "Registered Dewat", which can legally be "rewatted", which was duly done and then transferred on a Form 3.
