The Box O' Truth has a pretty succinct explanation of a C&R license:

Generally speaking, any non-auto military firearm in use prior to 1946 can qualify as a "cruffler." So Bart's comment about a $100 cruffler could mean a used, mil-surp WWII rifle.

What's a "cruffler rifle"?
Type 03 Federal Firearms License is known as the Curios and Relics Federal Firearms License. Abbreviated, this becomes C&R FFL, or CRFFL. Now, CRFFL, if you were to try to pronounce it, would come out something like "cruffle." Hence, the holders of these licenses have taken to referring to themselves as CRFFLers, or CRUFFLERS.
