The repeatedly stated reason for denying the import of M1 Garands was straight from the Brady campaign.
They claim the rifles take a high capacity magazine...
The denial of import has been hanging around since 2009.

Reminds me of the poem “Pigs is pigs”.

The term “rational, gun-control reason” is an oxymoron.

SK should have sold them in 2008 back to the US when Bush was Pres.

Without the 8 round clip they are single shot rifles.

The Brady bunch has a goal of eliminating all privately owned firearms whether semi-auto, bolt action, breech loading, or muzzle loading.

Not suprising at all; and, pretty important that they prevent such imports:

These are very good, long range rifles, easily hitting the _riflemans_quarter_mile_ when used by a true rifleman. What they hit, they take out.

Aside from this, the fact remains that Century built guns are often *terrible*. This probably had something to do with it; Century weapons are often referred to as being assembled by ‘angry drunken monkeys.’

By denying import approval the weapons will be sold somewhere else, perhaps Sudan to Muslims. Obama will like that, Yes he will !!
