I did not searched the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' website www.atf.gov for the specific ruling however British & European auction houses now inform customers that "under current rulings enforced by BATF any Mauser 98 actioned sporting rifle that has a thumb recess in the sidewall and loading-clip cut-out in the rear bridge will be refused an import permit into the United States".

That is fucked. Wonder if they apply that to the SMLE's and others with stripper clip feeds. Should point out to them the M1 Garand uses a clip.
