Can't import LE receivers into the US???

[AMCer]

I posted a "WTB LE RECEIVER" message in WTB and a nice person responded that Marstar Ca was selling NEW receivers!

I called Marstar and they said I needed a ATF No6 (import) form.

I called ATF and the woman told me that (she thinks) I can't import an C&R receiver into the US!?!?!

Is there a solution to this predicament???

OOPS, that should have been a link to

These would be 1955 Long Branch production? There was a whack of them around at one time. Lovely receivers, but for that blasted MkI* mod.

It would be interesting to know why SAL/Long Branch didn't embrace the Mk.2 body, or at least the Mk.2/1 conversion. Perhaps it was felt the rifles would not be in service long enough to justify the change over(?)
