*** CZ 858 March Update ***

[AB.223]

Wow, just wow. Anybody still thinking the Libs wouldn't be so bad?

Definetely proves how much they're watching this forum.

The RCMP report does not appear to be at the professional level one would expect from an official organization, it is more akin to a high school level debate.

The RCMP lost all credibility years ago. They are mad dogs who got off their chain and refuse to come back and comply.

Murray Smith is the guy who was spearheading SKS ban and ban for all other "easily converted to auto" firearms.

Here is a quote from his report on the state of current firearms market "The materials required for improvised full automatic fire are ordinary everyday products".

Also rumors are he is behind the whole "magazine capacity" issue with 10/22, Beowulf and lar-15. He doesn't like pinned mags too, as "they are easily convertable to full capacity". Another quote from the same report.

So yea, good luck getting any unbiased treatment from him.

There's no reference to any CZ 858 Spartan (or any other gun called a Spartan) on Calibre's website. 100% guaranteed. I'm guessing Smith just sort of guessed at who'd mentioned it... goes so to show he did no homework though. Go search "spartan" on the Calibre website.

But I think we're missing the point... if the marketing lingo is the biggest factor in classification, does this mean that if an AK is marketed/advertised as a Valmet, it's a Valmet? Because damn, that'd be one hell of a precedent to set.

Or, more importantly, would people who bought the "Canadian Maple Leaf" edition CZ-858 now be in possession of a prohibited firearm?

Really happy you are fighting it. Someone has to show them that they are full of it

This clearly shows how they have completely abandoned the spirit of the law in order to pander to their Liberal bias' and masters. No wonder the Arms East RPD is still ongoing despite a BAFTA report stating the rifles are good to go.
