Modern Sporter Update April 5th 2018

This looks like the non-AR-AR to buy.

What would be worst case scenario,for ATRS, if these are released early? Transfer/registration?

Worst case for me is they go restricted,and I’m willing to live with that.

fingers crossed fellas, hope the RCMP doesn't #### the bed and make this R or P. If they don't screw up, this would be the go-to NR-wannabee-AR.

Honestly, all respect to the SLR and the WK-180C (the latter of which is awesome just for how cheap it is, might buy one eventually anyways to be My Little Armalite...), the ATRS Modern Sporter is the best-looking NR receiver set, and I like that it's 100% compatible with AR parts (not like 95% or 99%).

My ONLY wish is that we could maybe get an option for a forward assist for an extra little bit of cash, just because my A4 clone wouldn't look complete without it

I spent an hour on the phone today with Ed Burlew on this very topic.
His opinion is that to the individual, the ramifications should not be much more than having to have the rifle registered, so not a big deal.
The exposure we have is potential retributive persecution. The feds seem to think nothing of laying a bunch of charges, suspending a FBL while the courts sort things out. Defending ourselves against litigation would be expensive, having our FBL revoked or suspended would kill the company. Although the FRT is not law and despite the fact that this is a direct descendant of the MV, so by rights should be NR, do we take the all or nothing gamble that could end ATRS permanently?

The Maccabee mag well is not my favourite as well as the take down screw idea but the mag well being angled that much doesn’t look that bad at all really. This receiver set Just looks a lot better :-) plus the take down method appears to be mo my style lol these gonna sell like Twinkie’s and timmies

No sense putting your business at risk, the MV is NR, the Macdef is NR, no reason these won't be. Once you get NR the best thing to do is crank these out by the truckload. They'll be known as the right arm of free Canadians.

Understandable,where your coming from.
If you submitted for an FRT in Nov, wouldn’t your 120 business day ,wait period be up shortly?

I agree. It will be top quality.
