Since when is an FRT required by law?
The BEST Straight-Pull Rifle in Canada - Maple Ridge Armoury
- Thread starter VictoryRidgeCS
- Start date
VictoryRidgeCS
Regular
Since Bill C21 passed.
Thanks.
Does that mean a separate NR FRT was indeed obtained for the machined upper receiver in question?
I have to admit I'm a bit puzzled.
The firearm is the lower receiver, this is the part that receives the FRT. Right?
The semi-auto conversion in question does not touch the lower receiver, at least to my understanding.
Which means there is actually no way for the RCMP firearms labs to even consider a different firearm for a different FRT.
Correct me if i'm missing something?

The Renegade is a bolt-action rifle. The upper portion that contains the action and the barrel is the receiver and the bottom portion that contains the trigger and magwell is the bottom metal. The Receiver has the model and make markings along with the serial number making it the "firearm" according to the Firearms Act. In this way, it is the Receiver that has the NR FRT. Therefore, any machining of the Recevier to make it function in a manner not consistent with the current FRT, will make the converted Renegade a new firearm and thus will require a new FRT before it can be made and sold legally.
Furthermore, the Renegade accepts magazines that were orignally designed to hold more than the legal capacity of 5 rounds. If the Renegade were to be machined into a new semi-auto firearm, this design and production would take place after December 15, 2023 and thus be in breach of the magazines restriictions found in Bill C-21.
How long does it usually take you guys to ship an in stock rifle?
I ordered last Tuesday and it’s still showing as processing.
I’m not in any hurry, maybe these are built to order?
Edit: called and they picked up the phone after hours. Said it’d be out in a couple weeks.

Ah, now I understand. Thanks! Indeed if the upper receiver is the rifle then what you explain makes sense. Much appreciate your input and help understanding this.
Cheers MRA
I like the K31 charging handle design, was thinking it would be a good addition to the MRA straight pull action of rifles.
The horizontal barrel charging handle is ok, but some people might like the K31 option .
Jet cut, beveled, deburred, and powder coating or Cerakote.
I attached the addresses for the add on K31.

Our handle greatly improves the ergonomics of the charging movement, while remaining very light, and retaining the familiar handling of our favorite carabiner.
