In my limited experience, I'd say the BAR C&R is amnesty-registered and thus transferable, while the label "BAR" might be ambiguous? Probably means the BAR is either a pre-sample or post-sample.

No exactly sure what you're referring to, but if it's a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR), I would assume a C&R BAR is an old\original machinegun that can be transferred strait to a C&R license holder's address, given that they fulfilled all the NFA requirements. I'm sure there were some re-manufactured BAR's, that do not fit the C&R requirement of being 50 years or older, which then must be transferred through a FFL/SOT. C&R machinguns in general typically demand a higher price, as they can be easier to transfer for C&R license holders, and are also inherently more valuable due to their age and collectabilty.

Yes thats correct, the C&R MGs are original manufacturer guns.
Non-C&R are people like Group Industries that made BAR receivers and took USGI parts and added them to make a MG.
There are many guns like this. Most often seen are Sten guns. People registered the tubes (Receivers) before 1986 and then put a Sten Parts kit onto them. Its much more rare to see an all original Sten.
Also Maxims and 1919a4s. New made sideplates were added to parts kits before 1986 to make a MG.
So in general C&R guns refer to all OEM receivers. Where non-C&R generally refer to after market receivers and rewelded receivers made from demilled receivers. In turn C&R commands more of a premium where non-C&R are more shooter grade.
