What is with all the "lock this thread talk"? Paranoid much guy's? That kind of talk only shows you feel like you are in the wrong.
Rumour or not nothing ever should be taboo when it come's to firearms, the more people that know the better chance we have to fight if the rumour is true.
Day after day some twits calls for thread locks for no reason.
Stand up and dont be scared ladies.
(It's sunday sunny and warm and I'm drinking.)

When the thread goes from discussion on the topic to "from my cold dead hands", it's time to lock it as everything worth saying has been said. Continuing to have this thread open only serves to spread panic based on sketchy information (at best).

Reclassify too MUST HAVE
I was merely speaking about the RCMP which can *at will* reconsider its past decisions, and give bs reason to re-classify, as was seen with the BD-38.
Where did you find that info?
Do you mean as the BD-38 former owner, which proudly had "molon labe" in his signature, but still surrendered his BD-38 when asked to ?
FWIW, the last thread asking CanAm to clarify his words ended up being deleted...

These threads are either all complete BS or are hitting too close to home for those key players to actually post an update.
I want to know as much as you guys, however if there is an actual issue with import/sales many companies here stand to lose pretty heavily.
I want an answer too folks, just not sure that we can force a company to answer us just because we demand they do...

i have no idea whats going on right now.
The OP claims the text in bold below is quoted from an email received from Marstar. The easy way to put all of the speculation in this thread to rest would be for Marstar to address this directly. I can't see how it wouldn't be in their best interest to contribute a couple of sentences of text that would clear the air. MARSTAR: Many of us would genuinely appreciate it if you might elaborate on the claims of the OP. Thanks in advance for your input.
On a further note ...
It just seems like there are a lot of threads on CGN that contain cryptic messages from dealers, either directly from them or via alleged communication with another member, but are then never elaborated on. Mostly these have had to do with rumors of reclassification of "insert hot model of the day here" and end up spiraling into a sea of speculation, then get shut down because someone calls out a sponsor in a less than tactful way.
Here's an easy solution to the issue:
Dealers: Please avoid posting cryptic messages and ignoring/refusing to answer questions for clarification.
CGN members at large: please refrain from posting rumors and then getting mad at dealers for not chiming in. If you have reason to believe something of interest is up, collect information privately to confirm any assertion or claim before you post it in a public forum.

Hey Guys,
I was recently in contact with Marstar about the VZ-58 and I received this response:
Due to government changes in the re-classification of this firearm we are holding back for the moment....
Has anyone heard anything else about this?
What the hell is going on?
It seems like we go 1 step forward and 10 steps backwards.....
well id say that is the reason right there if true.
Panic selling is more likely to be the result.

The CZ858 was used in a spree shooting during that political event in Quebec...some guy in a blue bathrobe brought one and managed to shoot one person before it jammed up and would not work any more.
