Kel Tec SU-16F is now "NON-RESTRICTED"
- Thread starter MXoutdoors

Shades of grey.
Personally, even with the draft angle and all that, I prefer injection moulding. Bend radii are annoying.
That said, a CNC milled receiver is best. For smaller components, I'd rather it be done via powder metallurgy.
Sorry if I come-off as a bit obtuse at times.
Ahh, but will they ship to Canada?

this is the news I have been waiting to hear...now to get some funds!
I just wanted to let you guys in on a little secret I just found out!! Neato...
I know some of you really liked the redlion foreend.
Well, I found a pretty sweet (AND CHEAPER) option online on calguns.
So, no, it isn't free floated, but this gun is capable of at least 2MOA, which is all I'm expecting of it. So, I'm doing this uber cheap (and awesome) forend setup...
[EDIT]
Where do I find a fake can like that?

If the su16 is $1000, it would be worth it over the mini, IMO... You can buy 10 round AR mags for the su16, nuff said... lol...
No they won't. You'll have to go through one of the authorized dealers that also sell the firearms that Vault brings in for distribution.
Those dealers can be found here. http://w ww.vaultdistribution.net/forum/16-general/69-kel-tec-official-canadian-stocking-dealers
I was inquiring about the Red Lion fore-end, not the kel-tec line.
Red Lion Precision will not ship to Canada. It's not worth it to them, FOR THE MOMENT.
More inquiries could change that.
As far as I can tell, the model we're getting is the pencil barrel with barrel mount sights, not threaded. Basically the SU-16a. The SU-16CA, with heavier barrel, gas block sights and threaded barrel(but 18.5") would be my choosing.
I'll still get this SU-16f, but the minute a canadian version of the su-16ca(with 18.5" barrel) is announced, the previous bought su16f would be on the EE in seconds.

Except that the su16f is chambered for .223, not a pistol round.

Would they need an export license for these? May be a more complicated issue than just small demand.
I hope they do though, would like one for sure.

Dang.
Thanks for posting that. The first time around I thought you meant they wouldn't do it just because.
Ah well, hope we get them eventually.

By the sounds of it, if we had an importer, they would be willing to sell to us. But they don't want to export themselves, due to the cost of going through exporting companies in the US. So, someone like john at marstar, who deals in both countries, might have better luck. Just guessing.
Not completely for me doesn't matter if the hi-point one is a Non-restricted for me since hunting with it aint allowed in my area and getting permission to just go plink on someones land isn't happening. If I still lived out west I'd consider either since finding places to plink wasn't an issue.
