I don't understand why everyone is focusing on how it got banned. In law you seek out the beginning of an event to who caused you damage. If I owned a swiss arms which I don't, I would trace back to how the FRT originally got issued. Obviously, the FRT was issued for one of two reasons; The RCMP made a mistake and were negligent in their duties to classify it properly, or someone committed fraud in representing these rifles as something they weren't. In light of the RCMP saying they won't reimburse anyone for the rifles and actually saying seek out the seller, I believe and this is my opinion here, that they are saying go after who caused the problem. I would get all swiss arms owners get together, hire a lawyer and start a class action lawsuit. I would also demand the RCMP investigate if there was fraud involved in getting these rifles classified and charges be laid to those persons involved. 1800 people have been defrauded by some shady dealings to get a rifle classified improperly. Go after the source who caused the damage. If these rifles were brought in properly to begin with this never would have happened. Again this is all just my opinion and is not legal advice.
