A gun you wish was C & R eligble

Ok, let me ask a stupid question here. I thought that being over 50 years old automatically got it onto the list. Since the vast majority of ex-military 1911's are over 50 years old wouldn't they be C&R?
 
I'm a waiting for the Browning high power to make the list. I don't think it has been out of production for very long. sure seems to qualify on the historical side tho.

A couple of years ago there were a bunch of Hi Powers that went on the C&R list....or sort of did. If my memory serves me correct they were Argentine surplus guns. I almost bought one. The price, again, if I remember correctly was VERY good. One small problem though. After quite a few had been sold, the BATF decided that they weren't C&R afterall. Those poor guys that bought them in good faith were ordered to return them. I think that Southern Ohigo Guns, and maybe JG Sales, or CDNN were the ones selling them. But, it was maybe 4-5 years ago, and the details are sketchy. Just think how disappointing that would have been?:mad:
