Vz-58 Reclassification?

The FSN is a variant of the VZ-58.

As for any reclassification, it is likely that the RCMP has determined (or is in the process of determining) that several models are either readily and easily convertible to full auto, or are considered converted autos. This would not affect all VZ-58 firearms as certain ones like the CSA's are definitely made on new receivers in a semi-only configuration. There will be no grandfathering for these rifles as they are not prohibited through OIC.

I will also add that Marstars response was highly cryptic and any further speculation on any pending reclassification is counter-productive.

This is probably the only post that will ever make sense of this situation.

I would assume even if these restrictions came in, the CSA models would be exempt being that they're built on new actions. Not converted auto's

That's not how it works. There are no new restrictions, just a potential reclassification of certain VZ-58 models, made under the current laws and regulations. There has been no change in the law in regards to this issue, and it will not affect all VZ-58's even if a reclassification is made. (Bold for general emphasis, and nothing has actually been determined at this point.)

Do you mean the current law which basically delegates regulation to an external body, which can then change its point of view as needed ?

The governor in council may enact regulations; however, no new regulations have been enacted. The only way that they could do this would be through an OIC, and no OIC naming the VZ-58 as a prohibited firearm has been issued.
 
Why lock it?

How about we get Marstar and CanAm to clarify or give some more details!!!

It's their posts that are starting all this mess, and yet they do not provide any evidence or even further clarification....

So far their posts serve no purpose or help to others, only cause panic, and further fear mongering....
 
also do you think this guys toe is going to be OK?
