...'62 dated would be 50 years old,...
In order to be a "Curio and Relic" by BATF definition, the gun has to have been made 50 years prior to the current date. That means, in order to be a C&R, the gun has to have been made prior to "today's" date in 1961, not 62.

If Ruby's Colt had been made prior to "today's" date in 1961, it would qualify as a C&R two ways: It would have significant historical association, thus eligible to be added to BATF's list AND it would be over 50 years old, which doesn't require being added to the list.
