What do you get when you mix a FAL, an SKS and a VZ58

This

I thought it was pretty neat, not sure if it would be legal in canada with the FAL lower, but neat all the same

Found it on another forum

Wow! That's a thing of beauty!

 

[Captain Paul]

Hahaha! I like it!!! Way prohib though.

How do you figure ?

Its simply an SKS in different clothes , As long as their is no trigger group or mechanical parts from the vz58 or FAL it would not be prohibited unless done so by barrel length .

Didn;t he say its from a FAL lower?

 

[burnt_servo]

The registered part on the FN is the upper.

If the AR-180b could be accepted as not being a varient of the AR-15 despite using the same FCG, I'd say this one has a chance.

Whenever I click on a thread like this, I worry that someone will have Wally####ed a perfectly good rifle.

This however, looks wicked.

Please post more info on what you did.

Oh

Sorry, I have a very low tolerance of gun regulation and the bull#### it comes with

Interesting design. I am looking forward to the production version.

 

[shredder]

I WANT!!!!!

Especially in 7.62x39!!! Then in .308!!!

Can't see why it would be prohibited. With the SKS receiver, it is not a FAL variant.
It is interesting that the only really new part is the foreward lower/magazine housing.
With the SKS recoil spring unit being in the upper, a FAL Para butt unit should be possible.

 

[Captain Paul]

Well that is mad cool.

 

[racer111]

Be still my throbbing groin.

Pretty neat, except the front hand guard needs some FAL'ing.

In this world Alex, everything needs a bit of FAL'ing.

true, and your smarter than me when it comes to this stuff. but usually anything that can take an AR upper is classed as a varient (the 'special' lowers for 50 bmg conversions made by ATRS needed to have the uppers modified too in order to get a NR classification. so i would think they would say if it readily takes a FAL lower, its a FAL. hopefully im wrong.

 

[P0WERWAGON]

but the gun is the SKS, there are no numbers for the FAL lower, just a part.

 

[tiriaq]

With the AR lower situation, the lower is the controlled part. If the upper fits, then it is an AR variant.
In this situation, the upper is the controlled receiver, and FAL lowers are unregulated.

I know what you're saying, but since the "new" upper on that firearm is already based on an existing design (that already has an FRT), it would likely be Non-restricted.
