Well, CGN, we have some excellent news, so hopefully you'll forgive the super short notice! We've been working with Wilson Combat for a long time now to get their AR15s approved for export despite an uncooperative State Department trying to keep all the goodies for themselves, and we got the word today that they are finally able to export these rifles to us! Wilson's extremely long waits are well known by now, with their pistols being over 24 months in queue these days, but we've been in queue for quite awhile on the rifles just in case the State Department leaned our way -- so we've actually got several slots on queue coming up IMMEDIATELY right on the heels of our approval!
Here's where you come in, CGN: we have barrels secured for a number of rifles to be built and shipped very soon, and these slots need to be finalized as to which rifle they are on Tuesday, 01 April 2014. Believe it or not, it's not an April Fool's Prank! We really are going to have Wilson Combat rifles. If you want one, you can secure one -- CONTACT US to work with Gary or myself to make arrangements.
WILSON COMBAT Special Purpose Rifle 18", 1:8 Twist, 5.56mm - $2999.99CAD (UPDATE: 31 JULY 2014 -- 1:7 Twist)
The Special Purpose Rifle is based on the special operations Mark 12 Mod X. The SPR was designed to be an intermediate sniper / designated marksman rifle. The 18” match grade 1-7 twist barrel offers exceptional accuracy with heavier bullets making it a more effective long range rifle. The rifle length T.R.I.M. rail offers extreme versatility for mounting mission essential equipment such as night vision, bipod, tactical light, secondary optics, etc... The SPR is equally at home as a sniper / designated marksman rifle, on the range or as a long range small game hunting rifle.

PS: I'm sure it goes without saying, but just so we're clear: optics, mounts, and bipod/accessories are not included in these rifles as imported. We're more than happy to help outfit them, but they're only in the photos to make the gun look cooler, they're not included! Stock photos are for illustrative purposes and may differ.
