Saw that, could have some implications for the gun folks, depending how anal they want to get.

Think about it, having to prove those grips or sight beads are Legal Ivory. Exotic wood forends… slippery slope

One of my sons builds guitars. He's felt that this was coming three years ago.
There has been this underground "wood" highway operating for years.

It does beg the question; Could there possibly br TOO many government employees with time on their hands?

The Feds refuse to do anything about illegal aliens/criminals entering the USA but they're all over this?

Its irritating how the folks who 'need' to control everything make such a big deal out of stuff like this, but they are, after all, just enforcing the law. If the illegal trade in rare and exotic woods is a problem, and if the musical instrument makers are violating the law, then we either have to enforce the law or do away with it.

Same thing with dairymen who have a lucrative following of food nuts who want unpasteurized products. That law's for the health of the people and if its worth having on the books its worth enforcing.

Customs agents going overboard about ivory keys on 200 year old pianos or exotic woods on guitars or violins or something like that may be less helpful...Geo

Geo., After all, they are FEDERAL EMPLOYEE'S.....have you ever known ANY Federal employee to NOT go overboard at least a little to show their degree of "self importance".......?.......A Federal Employee's translation of a specific Federal law is always cloudy at best..........
