2015 Shot Show: Osprey Armament Mk-36 - M1A/M14 AR Style Rifle

[freezer filler]

Still in the design phase...that's all I can say. Seems well balanced though, and not too heavy.

The firearm is the M-14 type rifle at the root of the assembly.
The add-ons are not a firearm.

Remember when a member here spliced an FN-FAL lower receiver group to an SKS? The thing was still an SKS.

Armedsask's suggestion in post #37 is bang on.

Hey I hope i am wrong but that is assuming that rules don't change (like that never happens and;

they won't call the add on a varient of the Ar15 reciever.

[MJS]

Any details on that?

[shortandlong]

also I would like to add that some of you are also assuming that there is common sense involved with the classification system, recall all the 22s that were banned as "varients" ?

As far as I know the internals would be completely different than an AR. It has to work with the M14 Action which is entirely different than an AR. I believe the lower is to make for a AR style grip, trigger, and safety.

The internals would have to be very different as you are working with a vastly different bolt carrier and trigger assembly The lower is to make it look and feel like an AR with the mag well, trigger guard, etc.

Having AR internals or not has nothing to do with whether something is classified as an AR. They have classified rifles as AR (or AKs or SIG 550) strictly on appearance alone.

I would think restricted

I can see the RCMP doing this, as much as I would hate them for it.

However, how is that that the Modern Hunter, which does resemble an AR manage to stay non-restricted.

EDIT: I see Tiriaq answered my question about the Modern Hunter.

Looking at the photo, the rifle does not look like it uses an M1A receiver. It looks proprietary. The only M1A part I see on it is the charging handle (an I assume, the bolt).
even the gas system looks different.

To me there's no diffrence between this



Or the system there offering. Just a bit more advanced.

just my opinion folks ........thats all, lets see what the "god"s decide

[Odd Shot]

except that doesn't look like an AR, at all.
