is it legal to own a BBR?

biglabsrule · September 7, 2006, 08:38 AM

I've always loved the ww2 weapons and have fired a tompson, m1, m14... and own an enfield, My question, being a novice to non hunting rifles is this, is it legal to own a BBR? I'd like to buy those four guns for the safe..., Know the m1 is easy to run down, semi auto tompsons can be had, m14 no sweat but how about the bbr? how big of a hastle would it be, and how expensive if it is possible.... any knowledge is greatly appreciated Ty

What's a BBR?

BAR's go for what, something like $12,000 or so?

No, BARs go for $30,000-$45,000.

Dealer samples go for $12k.

It was OOW, not ORF, that made the semis.
