Desert Tech confirms a Canadian MDR

[jonathanwelch]

The official system is metric in Canada I believe.
It really depends on who it is in Canada, some people use imperial and some people use metric.

Agreed Andrew! Cheers

Hopefully not Korth or Vault.

I'd vote IRunGuns!

Couldn't agree more! We really need IRG to step up on this one.

My first question is going to be about the trigger. If it has a high MSRP and a crappy trigger, I would be sad. Having to spend another $300 - $400 on something like a Geissele (once they come out) is hard on the wallet. If it has a bit higher MSRP and a sweet trigger that would be ok.

Another long waiting game begins...speaking of which....where is my factory ACR DMR? I want so many "recreational firearms/modern sporting riffles" right now it's torture!



The Tan does look sweet!

in for updates!!!!!!

Who is the Canadian distributor for Desert Tech?

The Shooting Edge in Calgary Alberta has brought in the DTA SRS in the past. I hope they are not the only importers for DTA when this MDR comes out.

They are not any longer as stated in TSE's thread about the DT SRS'. I think I read Blueline?

Yes, I found out over a year later that they lost their distributorship for DTA/DT but during that time I kept being told by their sales staff that the rifle I wanted was on the way. Not sure who is the distributor now but there are retailers bringing them in on their own.

I imagine it will be very popular, similar to the Tavor and a lot of our vendors will stock them. I hope, anyway. Spare parts should be fairly easy to get considering they are US made?

That .308 version looks awesome! I would love to get one. Seems like it will be better than the Kel-Tec RFB.

Looks like a piece of keltec plastic junk
Atleast the t97 uses an aluminium reciever and im going to have to buy an entire snap on tool set for disassembly and when those stupid screws strip ill need a tap set

 

[X-man]

The prototype displayed at SHOT piqued my interest, if Desert Tech can deliver a quality product, I'd definitely be interested in taking a chance on a .308Win model.

Hate to be "that guy", but if I recall, didn't the RCMP ban the SCAR-17 rifles from import because they purchased fully-automatic parts and dropped them into a semi-auto only gun?
Wouldn't they try the same thing with the MDR, since Desert Tech is producing full-auto variants too?

the tavor has a full auto version as well, so where are you going with this?

 

[Vigilant]

Damn that makes this even more awesome!

More bullpups the better, I want to add them to my Tavor , RFB and KSG.

Good point.

It says right in the first post that it takes standard ar-15 and sr25 mags

 

[Thringer]
