[greentips]

MEGA 308 Monolithic upper receiver system in 308. SR15/PMAG-L system. The electroless nickel finish is super snick. Comes with ambidixious bolt release.

Every time I see an AR, I cry a little inside knowing you can only fire them at ranges.

Do something about it by getting involved politically.

I feel your pain man. I would probably have 3+ ARs if they could be non-res.

+1.

The AR is only restricted(originally it was going to be prohib) because the DCRA could illustrate that it was used in competitive Canada-wide competition.

There are many political organizations at the federal, and even provincial level(Alberta) that need people to help out, and candidates to run. We have a long climb ahead of us, but at least we've started.

What is their method of barrel retention?

 

[greentips]

A tube wrench and nut - kinda like what KAC does with the old URX.

Don't quote me on that, but I think they send your a wrench along with a receiver purhase if I had heard it right at the counter.

Not hard to show today that it is currently used world wide for hunting.

Not hard for me to shot you, or you I, but harder to show most MPs/MLAs. Even harder to show the implementers. Even harder to show the liberals.

 

[lone-wolf]

Not hard for me to shot you...

Yeah, but, you ask joe schmo if gun owners want the AR15 de-restricted you're answer will be "what's an ar15?" "no?" "aren't those things illegal?"

All bad answers. Our publicity sucks.

 

[lone-wolf]

Seriously why can't I edit my post??

Should be "your" not "you're"

I've just bought a MATEN receiver set and Young's Manufacturing bolt carrier for 6XC build I'm doing, I didn't know about the nickle option though.

 

[Agent Law]

Looks very slick.

 

[VanIsler]

Gorgeous rifle.

Just curious... where did you happen to find the MATEN reiever and YM bolt carrier i was looking for them also.

The YM bolt carriers are also hard to find this side of the line, the MATEN I got from Rainier Arms.

 

[coldfire]

a smaller diameter forend would be nice. but that is a damn fine looking rifle.

 

[dutchtouch44]

would this ever be sold in Canada? If so are there any dealers who carry mega arms?

 

[RPinVan]

There may be something in the works to bring Mega Arms rifles in to Canadian dealers. There should be more information available in the upcoming weeks.
