    Have checked it out... No interest since most of the reviews have been very poor. I meant we need something like a saiga. If the VZ is the "AK" (yes I know the difference) of Canada, we need a Saiga of Canada too...

    If priced right I'm in, it would be nice to have a .308 in this gun, I love my 858

    True, CSA and North Sylva Co. have numerous hurdles to overcome but prototypes have already been manufactured (AP-67). It's just a matter of whether or not the dynamic duo can make it a financially beneficial venture, and if so, how long it will take to jump through all the government hoops. I'd be pleased as punch if a tentative delivery date were published within the next 2-3 years but I admit that may be a little optimistic. As long as Masterpiece Arms doesn't announce plans for a 7.62x51 version of their MPAR at next year's SHOT Show (if that's even possible) then I think this rifle could be a real seller on the Canadian and American markets.

    I would buy one for sure. M14 mags would be a plus, (same ones as my Norinc M14 to be exact).

    Does NS have any updates for us? Or at least a new pic instead of the old grainy AP67 picture?

    I doubt we will see or hear much of anything until they are already here

    I would not want to get one of the first batch for a small market - too many possiblities of persistent bugs to work out like the Kp31 clones from TRS.

    Kind of a gamble, but I think the latest test polls (BAR, #37 machine guns, etc) are a bit out to lunch in this tube sock economy.
