    As for 9" barrel length, NOT gonna happen as that would ensure it being restricted.

    Price for the prototype in the $50000.00 range. Price for the production model IF and when we do get it into production will have to be figured out once we have some made. We are hoping to come in in the $2500.00 to $3000.00 range much like the higher end AR10 rifles run, but at this point it is merely conjecture. If the market will support the volume to warrant buying higher production CNC equipment the price would come down some, but again at this point it is too early to project pricing with any certainty.

    The way we have designed these it would be very easy to scale it up for 300 Win Mag or down for 223 which opens up many more possibilities.
    Ohh.. .223 you say eh? Now that would be very interesting. I've been looking at your AT-15 for a while now but just can't justify a range queen when I can go shoot in the bush easily.

    Hasn't the Swiss SAPR been in for review for almost four years now?? What a boat load of BS this whole process is.

    I think it is great that a CDN manufacture is giving this a go. I hope it works out.
    There is no reason why we can;t have .308 semi's. to go hunting with.

    Kinda lame we end up having to pay high prices because of decisions made years ago by the liberals. But thats another story.

    If ATRS can make a NR .308 semi down the road in a few years, I will buy it. If it is good maybe they can sell it outside Canada and recoup their investment costs. And lower our retail in the process

    All the best. Update us in the new year......

    +1 on this project Rick. Here's hoping the Feds make a decision sooner than later. I'm eager to buy and will be at your door as soon as you start taking orders.

    I'd be so tempted to be as big a pest to them as I could be until they got off their asses.

    And possible guarantee yourself a ticket to the back-of-the-line, bottom-of-the-pile club too.
