I see where our President wants to do away with the C&R license for private citizens in the U.S.. I was told that he doesn't mind museums and places of historical value from having the weapons; he just doesn't want private citizens to have them.

WH.GOV/NOW-IS-THE-TIME ... This is my source. I also asked a friend in the ATF ( Jim Simmions) to explain it to me. He did and had me copy the document to my computer. C&R- Curio and Relic FFL

Here is the language in the actual text from the guidelines set forth by the obamanation

• Eliminate restrictions that force the ATF to authorize importation of dangerous
weapons simply because of their age: ATF is required to authorize the importation of
certain “curio or relic” firearms, and outdated regulations include all firearms manufactured more
than 50 years ago in the definition of “curio or relic.” But today, firearms manufactured more than
50 years ago include large numbers of semiautomatic military-surplus rifles, some of which are
easily convertible into machine guns or otherwise appealing for use in crime. Congress should
get rid of restrictions that prevent ATF from changing this definition, enabling ATF to ensure
that firearms imported as curios or relics are actually of interest as collectibles, rather than letting
these rules be used as a way to acquire fully functional and powerful military weapons.
