BCL MRX Bison !!!

I messaged BCL to ask the same question. Response I got was that since Distributor hasn't ordered any none have been produced.
So I guess if we want to see 300Blk we need to ask our dealers who in turn ask their distribution and hopefully with enough interest we get some made.

So this is one ask Wolverine, 300Blk please

We have taken orders for both .300 BLK and 7.62x39. Originally when we went to place the purchase orders when this was released, we were told that production wasn't going to happen until the fall.. We have plenty of orders for them as we were placing stocking orders, not just "pre-orders", and we have not been able to submit ANY Purchase Orders to the distributor as they have been refused. We have backorders for them, but are not allowed to place a PO for them as it would not be accepted, this is what we are being told from the distributor, NOT the manufacturer.

So this is exactly what's starting to happen now... Because consumers are talking to the manufacturer, the retailer is talking to the distributor, and the distributor is talking to the manufacturer, also the retailer is talking to the consumer, about conversations that the retailer and the distributor had... about what the manufacturer said to the distributor.

Short version:

Wolverine has orders for both .300blk and 7.62x39 models including colours of each.... We have backorders, but do not have a an accepted PO for any backorder because it was refused by the distributor... Why you ask, couldn't tell ya..

I want them, have taken orders for them, and tried to purchase them.. Whatever is being said in other conversations is not my place to comment, I will comment only on what I know.

Ah, North Sylva and BCL- two of the most spotless reputations in the Canadian firearms industry when it comes to clear information, honest communication, customer service, and accurate product lead times. I'm sure everything will be juuuuuuust fine :)

Something something silent-opening-dust-covers.
 
I've heard lots of negatives towards BCL and NS, and I'm sure much of it deserved, but I must say I am quite impressed with the Bison, they've really come through on this one. Can't say the same about the NEA / BCL AR stuff I had, but this Bison exceeded my expectations. Hopefully the demand / order issues get sorted out and we see this out in more calibers soon.
 
Lol, wow.
An interesting update, I made a post similar to what I wrote above on NS' Bison thread. Shortly afterwards my post was removed and thread closed.
So in my opinion all fingers point towards North Sylva Co. I hope they get it together before fall because there are other rifles on my radar but really wanting the Bison.
 
If we could get a spec on barrel/receiver threads or that barrels would be available in the future I would wait for Tan in 556 if that is available soon and re barrel to 300Blk either from BCL or if a common thread have a custom spun up by someone.

Willing to work around availability but need some solid info from NS/BCL

Ruger RPR barrels will fit. Canadian Calibre said so in their review video

Total Dumpster Fire.... i hope they get it shorted out, a 12.5" 300Blk is really wanted......
 
I picked one up in Calgary this weekend. 5.56 Bison.
Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but I mounted up a Trijicon 1-4 and I think I'm in love with this little rifle...

It doesn't seem to like ejecting Azoom snap caps, but works fine with normal brass. Winchester, Federal, PMC.

Thanks for the info about the extractor. My rifle is a pretty low serial number so I'll be paying close attention when I get out to shoot it. Nice to know it's an easy fix.
