You're thinking of the Bannerman conversions. I think the ones he did have a new rear sight dovetailed into the barrel and the receiver is marked 30.06.I read online that there was a gentleman many years ago that modified the 91/30s' including re-chambering in 30 06.
You also have to remember that for a C&R gun to retain the C&R exemption, it must be in the original basic configuration. This is probably the most disregarded aspect of cruffling, but it is still a potential for loosing your license.
Now, it's a C&R in my book, so I can't sporterize it. If any C&R in my possession has to be in my book, I cant "disposition" it to me, without putting it back in my book!
A little OT, but I have to ask you.
If I would want to build a sporter out of a M/N, and just went to a LGS and bought one without using my C&R, I still have to enter it in my bound book. Now, it's a C&R in my book, so I can't sporterize it. If any C&R in my possession has to be in my book, I cant "disposition" it to me, without putting it back in my book! Sounds like a vicious circle.

But does it stay in your bound book after having been sporterized up until you sell it (if that should ever occur), or immediately after sporterization, since it is no longer C&R eligible, do you (or can you) disposition it to yourself to get it out of the bound book?tobnpr said:I am under the impression that, if the C&R weapon is "sporterized" and no longer qualifies as a C&R, that it simply cannot be re-sold as C&R, and must be sold (transferred) through an 01 FFL like any other non-C&R weapon.
Read Post #10 The answer I got from hardcase sounds reasonable.But does it stay in your bound book after having been sporterized up until you sell it (if that should ever occur), or immediately after sporterization, since it is no longer C&R eligible, do you (or can you) disposition it to yourself to get it out of the bound book?
Or do you have to take it to an 01 FFL and go through him to transfer it from your C&R self to your non-C&R self?
