    Will do. I pulled out my NIB 858 the other day to have a look at it in disappointment when I noticed it was actually a small window '06. But I sm still quite affected by this and not happy. I'll send an email tonight.

    This is in no way meant to be taken as being an apologetic post with regards to our ridiculous laws or the ridiculous individuals that interpret them how they see fit, but it is another way of viewing the issue.

    In the end I would feel that both parties are to blame. Our government and the RCMP need to stop bowing to media hype, and view issues objectively. While at the same time, so long as the laws are on the books, CZ should have had a better understanding of them before selling a product that could have ended up with their customers losing the product they purchased due to them not understanding the laws.

    Fight on to get the laws changed, but maybe try and get a semi-auto designed/manufactured receiver from CZ in exchange for your now prohibited one. You get to use your rifle again, and CZ and re-fab the exchanged receivers for sale in another jurisdiction.

    Could someone maybe post a copy of an acceptable letter so as not to offend anyone at CZ or embarass Wolverine? I am just not great at writing letters and I would love to be able to use one as a template.

    Cheers,

    No need for a template. Keep it short and sweet (Polite) and to the point. You purchased a CZ 858 in good faith and now find through no fault of your own that it is prohibited and you are not happy to find yourself in this situation. Remember you catch more bears with honey that a stick, so a comment about how much you like CZ products but not prepared to purchase another CZ under the current circumstances should get their attention.
