.40s and .45s are covered under the "50" category.

Who is Bobs Pawn in Indiana and what 50cal pistol does he make?

Bob's Pawn is a fairly well-known Class 3 dealer in Kokomo.

What are some examples of Misc. Firearms?

I didn't know some makers where so big or otheres where so small (only 600 BFR's per year! and only 2 qualify as .44 or smaller)

Hmmm, interesting that Knight's Armament, under both FFL's combined, only produced 267 rifle and no other firearms; 24 of the rifles were exported.

Regarding the "misc firearms" my first thought was that would probably be NFA type arms like suppressors, AOWs, DDs, but I didn't see any of the big suppressor manufacturers on that list so I'm not sure what that is.

ETA, upon further review, seeing that Cav Arms, Bushmaster, Mega Machine Shop (all three make AR receivers), Nodak Spud (AK receivers), and Stiller (Precision Rifle actions) etc. are listed, I think "bare receivers" would be the culprit for all the "misc firearms". A receiver is neither a shotgun, rifle, pistol, or revolver so it would be misc. until it is built.
