    Fack I hope the RCMP aren't twats on this.
    If it's a direct clone it should be essentially a 1 day in the lab turn around to compare it to the BCL102/AR10 semi auto FRT specs and boom NR!

    I don't know if I can bring myself to sell my two favorite guns to fund this (even if it is my all time fantasy want to own rifle maybe in reach) though.
    Time to start doing under the table construction side jobs like a man possessed
    Guns only have two natural enemies; politicians and rust.

As a long time owner of an original AR10 rifle I am very well aware of the potential of the Brownell AR10 rifle.




    PS. This is one of the real boys... not a Brownells Repro, they look real close don't they?
    They look real close alright, but your rifle seems to have an extra hole in the receiver, just above the selector ...

    She is registered to me as a 12(3) Converted Auto. When it was legal to use her, she was a favorite, shot very well, I always thought these were very underrated.

    My brother had an original years ago. Brought it back to Ontario from NWT. Sad part is I have no idea who he sold it to. No doubt stupid cheap too. Would love to have a few of these repro's.

    cheers,
