Confusion over Special Targets, Star gauged, C&R Match rifles etc

[Smokeeaterpilot]

Greetings

Spent another day at NARA and found some good gems and I really like this document. Figured it was worth sharing. (I found it before, but lost it years ago on my first laptop and didn't realize where I originally found it. Like losing your wallet and finding it years down the road with money in it.)

I like it for several reasons.

First, I like how it shows terminology is both confusing and important. I'll frequently ask people for clarification, it's not meant to challenge them or that I'm preparing for a standoff. But sometimes what someone is trying to convey isn't received in the same manner. It helps to ask before going further.

Secondly, I like how it shows terminology changes and evolves. If you talk about one item in one year, that takes on an entirely different definition only a few years later. So it helps to know "when" something is being discussed.

Hope you guys enjoy it.

If you get a different interpretation, or see something I don't please chime in.

Happy Monday!
