All right. all right! We're bringing them in.

There will be no deposits taken until it's time. What needs to be done is ongoing with the powers that be.

Please continue the discussion... (!)

FWIW: The Insurgent to Virgin Teleport attachment is only for US Domestic and GOV end use. The general export version is limited to sporting use only.

That's awesome Walter!! I foresee you being a very busy man if these rifles go according to plan. :D
Mark me down for a 20".

don't really need super match grade for 12.5 - a light weight durable barrel in the range of 1 to 1.5 MOA is good enough. Chromelined hammer forge is good.

Hide all the pics of your rifle...
..make a bunch in plain dull grey/gray..
..take off all the tacti-kool stuff...
...make a 5 round only mag....
and a fixed stock.

THEN and only then..give it to the RCMP for Classification

There is value in listening to what's being said here.

I've recently seen a pic of the AR-16, with wood furniture on it:

If you appeal to some of the "'traditional" sense, and are willing to step away from the "tactical" approach with the initial sample sent to the RCMP for examination, it might go better.

The problem of making stuff for the Candian market is great, especially wheras you have to submit the rifle for examination, and won't even know if it's going to make it, and the rulings sometimes seem....a bit....arbitrary or bizarre.

I applaud your efforts at doing this, and if you're ever in Halifax, drop me a line for a beer, I'll set you up. Keep it up.

NS and all, I appreciate the thoughts and comments.

The SABR rifle as posted is what it is. What I think I can say, Darren said it himself, is that LWRC is building rifles for sale in Canada, this will eventually include a .308Win.

Ottawa is following Canadian law, but someone in Washington will ultimately decide on the Canadian configuration.

So far, so good.

Until the .308 rifles are built and here and registered, our how's and why's are best not posted/discussed, IMO, so I'm going to have to respectfully bow back out of this thread.

For shooters looking to buy LWRC .223 and 6.8 in the nearer future, start gathering your shekels now.

So where are we at right now?
1. Have the RCMP been given a rifle to examine?
2. How long does it take for the RCMP to classify a rifle?
3. How long after a rifle is classified does it take the importer to get the rifles.
4. How long does it take to actually ship the rifles and get them across the border with paperwork?
5. What other hoops do they have to jump through?

How about using the XCR as an example, does anyone know how long it took for it to be classified, shipped etc?
Is there any way to know or even make a best guess on when we could be getting these rifles in our hands? I've just started getting into shooting and I'm not up on how long and what steps are required for this to happen. Damn, I want one of these Non-restricted. And soon... Damit, someone just lie to me and tell me it will be three weeks 'till I have one in my hands.
