CRUSADER ARMS PND Rifle

The Crusader Arms PND Rifle takes the ergonomics and versatility of the modern sporting rifle and deploys them in a new, manually operated, integrated pump and side action rifle for sporting and hunting applications. For supreme accuracy and dependability, the Optic Ready full length top rail allows flexibility when mounting optics. The one piece Novel clamshell style receiver was specifically designed to steer away from the classification of an ”AR Variant” allowing it to stand alone as a unique design.

This rifle has also been designed to accept Black Creek Labs Bison 20 round magazines while also accommodating standard STANAG AR style magazines

hmmm... 20 round mags.

Looking closely at the pic, it looks like there is a spring running on the inside of the pump mech. Also, looking at the pump itself, I'd presume it's like the Tipan in that the breach is held shut by spring pressure.

Interesting.
 
Just buy a Troy PAR, been around for a while and with proven reliability.
Troy PAR’s are nice. I have four of them and bought them all before the bans started, just because they’re fun.

I see no reason why a Canadian manufacturer couldn’t make one just as good - they’re pretty simple.

This rifle seems to be able to accept accessories more easily. The PAR only has a top pic rail and then hard to find TROY adapter cuts.
 
As far as I read the regs, if you can put a Crypto upper on the the PND lower and it would function, then this will be prohibited regardless of the fact that the pump action upper is what comes with the registered lower.
