Didn't congress pass something in the 50s or 60s that states any American can own a M1 garand or us military surplus rifle through the CMP or something like that ? I'm not sure how it reads or is written but my buddy had a M1 garand shipped directly to his house last year . We are in CA and he did not need to go through a FFL or anything . Fed-ex just drooped it off .

Does anybody know how the law or what ever it is works and would it trump any state laws .
