Kuba Pistolen command high prices, owing to only 59 pieces ever having been made. As Vetter
notes in his account, their serial numbers duplicate those used in the earlier production run of
commercial SP47/8 pistols. This situation highlights the general difficulty of establishing delivery
dates for P210 pistols. Most commercial P210 deliveries came with a test target. In most cases, that
target noted its ammunition lot date. Many earlier targets also included the test date. For example, the
test target for the SIG P210-6 numbered P 64930 lists Munition as 23.5.60 and Datum as 7.
April 1970. These delivery dates are of critical interest under U.S. law, which exempts older firearms
from many regulations under the designation of Curios & Relics. C&R handguns are exempt from
the CA DOJ Certified Handgun Roster. As defined in Title 27, Code of Federal Regulations,
478.11, C&R firearms include all [f]irearms which were manufactured at least 50 years prior to the
current date, but not including replicas thereof. The same Title 27 C.F.R. 479.102, identifies the
firearm with its frame or receiver. Thus all pistols built on frames delivered by their makers at least
50 years ago, qualify as C&R under U.S. law. This pistol was assembled in 1951, but delivered in
1966, with its slide specially hardened in the interim. Depending on the interpretation of the cited
statutes, it may or may not qualify as a C&R firearm as of 2008.
The following chart correlates serial numbers with delivery dates and model designations. All
references are either to private communications (P), or to books by Doebeli (D), Vetter (V), and
Armbruster (A), as noted by page number.
