C96 serial number legal question

unspellable · 12-19-2002, 01:02 PM

I have seen a C96 Model 1930 with a serial number on the receiver but none on the frame.

Do not our federal firearms laws require a serial number on the frame of any pistol manufactured from 1934 onwards?

The C96 M1930 would have been manufactured from 1930 through 1937.

This is sort of in the same ambiguous territory as a Luger cannon being able to fire without the frame.
