HR 615 - Collectible Firearms Protection Act

Rep. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) has introduced HR 615 - the Collectible Firearms Protection Act. It is a mirror of the bill that Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) will be introducing into the Senate.

The bill has been referred to the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee for hearings.

Currently, this bill has eight co-sponsors on both sides of the aisle.
Rep Bishop, Rob [UT-1] - 2/10/2011
Rep Broun, Paul C. [GA-10] - 2/10/2011
Rep Carter, John R. [TX-31] - 2/10/2011
Rep Donnelly, Joe [IN-2] - 2/10/2011
Rep King, Steve [IA-5] - 2/10/2011
Rep Miller, Jeff [FL-1] - 2/10/2011
Rep Rehberg, Denny [MT] - 2/10/2011
Rep Ross, Mike [AR-4] - 2/10/2011
If your own Congressman is gun-friendly, you should ask him (or her) to sign on as a co-sponsor of this bill. As a "cruffler", if this bill passes it could mean more firearms imported or re-imported to the U.S. for collectors. I still remember the 3-fers that Century International used to offer. I got three Finnish Moisin-Nagant M-39s for $88 plus shipping.
