Ok I understand that. What I wonder about is what we say to police that may question our rifle if the see us in the bush or something. How will they know our rifle is non-restricted without an FRT? Will they be ok with our explanations? Genuine question I am having trouble finding an answer too.
Yah sorry just reading the last few post here. You can sell guns without first getting a FRT? How does that work? Why wouldn’t everyone do that? Just curious
From my understanding you need a FRT to import a firearm into Canada, you don't need one if it is manufactured in country but the selling company would be liable to ensure it meets NR classification. If something went wrong and the RCMP somehow put it in another class the manufacturing company would be on the hook. So the FRT isn't law as said above but it is the recognized "stamp of approval" from the RCMP themselves.
Think of it like this, you need a permit when doing electrical work on your house. Without a permit you can do the work and may never have an issue but if an electrical fire were to occur and it was found that work was done without a permit you would be on the hook and no insurance would cover your ass. If you went through the proper process of getting a permit and having the city sign off on the work that was done, if that electrical fire then started, you would now be covered.

Thanks for the information. If ATRS wants to wait for their gun to clear it sounds like the right thing. Thanks for the update.
If it's either loud, obnoxious, fast, hated by the general population or any combination of these, I OWN IT!!
