M1 importation from S Korea blocked

[Log Island]

I'd heard mention of this possibly happening, but never saw a confirmation.

The administration’s rationale was what it called *two common-sense executive actions* announced last year which were designed *to keep the most dangerous firearms out of the wrong hands.*

Most dangerous firearms? They know that these are not most dangerous firearms...this is just their public response...and the avg American probably does not even know what an M1 rifle even is!

I'd like to know how many M1's have been used to murder anyone in the last 10 years. "The Most Dangerous Firearm" murder rate is probably in the single digits for the last 20 yrs. Broken Thumbs, that's a different story.
obama is only doing this because I don't have one yet.

NRA ILA posted this update; apparently there's an appropriations bill that addresses this.

http://www.nraila.org/legislation/f...g-a-number-of-pro-gun-general-provisions.aspx

Sec. 518--Curios & Relics--Prohibits the Obama Administration from arbitrarily denying importation of qualifying and legal curio and relic firearms. Curios & relics are generally 50 years or older, and many are World War II and Cold War-era firearms.

Whether it gets past the senate, who knows?
