THe Russian Commercial is on the Roster under IMEZ.I have the IJ70-18AH which is the Hi Cap. The mags carry 10 or 11 rounds. Its a nice shooter!! The Bulgarian is under Arsenal which as to be marked 'Arsenal'. This is hte commercially marketed Bulgarian. The Bulgarian Military is easy to spot because it has the Circle 10 mark on the frame.

After the circle 10 is the Serial letters, 2 numbers which is hte date code and 4 digit numbers which is hte gun. Its my understanding that you can not get the Date code '25' or higher unless its Arsenal Marked becuase it was made 1985 or after. If its 24 or less it grandfathered from the Roster the one pictured is #23 which means it was made in 1983.

I am not in the C&R game, so I don't know those rules. Some European gun makers marked the month/year of manufacture on the frame. CZ acknowledged this, not sure of other makers. The handgun roster means nothing anyway.

It does not prohibit the possession of firearms not on the roster, so in my mind it's a paper tiger at best.

You cannot transfer it after you build it, but who cares.
