That's actually a full-auto assault rifle. Not made for civilian market. I don't even think they are interested to make a RCMP approvable version with very limited demand in Canada.
I believe the term is acceptable assuming the rifle has A) a fire selector and B ) said gun has full auto capabilities. Now this is where the media gets the term all muddied by calling every single semi auto gun witha fire selector an assault rifle
Just heard back from our contact, these are samples made by the factory and not in production. We asked to be notified if they ever do make their way to production
Depending on inflation yes and no for the mr models. For civvie side 416 ownership is looney tunes money but such is life with hard to find guns and parts. Gov side 416s aren't much more than the colt m4 pattern rifles on initial and the life cycle costs are much lower(although cc c7/8 closes that gap with the chf barrels)
