Copy of FRT page request

[Slowbalt]

Could anyone with access to the FRT send me a copy of the page concerning the French Service Revolver Model 1892 (antique version). Thanks.

What do you need to know? Maybe I can help?

Actually, I never seen this system before but I'd like to have a printout of the page with all informations that system has to offer. I see it as cheap insurance in case of a LEO confrontation. I would prefer not to get an antique letter.

There is no separate page for the antique M1892 revolver. M1892 is classified as restricted under FRT number 47425-1. In the Canadian Law Comments subsection it says "-some examples of this model, when manufactured prior to 1898, as considered "ANTIQUE" in Canada". Could not find mention of a FRT number for antique M1892s. Doesn't mean there isn't one.

Is there not a cut-off date that goes by the letter before the serial number on the French 92 revolvers? Can't remember how it goes tho.

Yes there is, check it out here; antique database. Under the French section of course .

That's why I couldn't understand it. I thought I had it upside down.
For some reason, the military ones with the date stamp on the barrel don't always pass antique status, even if the barrel says 1897. Seems odd. Maybe they read it backwards.

Out of curiosity, why is the FTR database not public ?
