Gsg-16 legal status - public announcement

IRG is not grey market. They are also Canadian. Suggesting otherwise is dishonest.

Thanks for the clarification blue line, still kinda sounds messy to me. It is what it.

OK. Story makes sense now. I stopped dealing with IRG after they allowed my credit cards info to be stolen and gave total BS when I (and others) figured out the source of the breach (it was IRG). Apology? None.

I don't know if anyone here is the bad guy. Looks like one guy may have accused the other guy of being the bad guy, perhaps because they're often look at as a bad guy by the other guys?

We have a sweet looking new rifle coming in, I'm just going to focus on that now.

One the other hand, I hate "exclusive" monopolies as they tend to end up with "black NR premium", so importers help to keep prices at bay.

Yeah but IRG was still selling prohibs as NRs. That's pretty shady.

Actually, we didn't communicate with the FRT division over this issue at all. We were contacted by police officers who were inquiring about this matter. It is a misconception that anyone can influence the decision of the RCMP over the product classification. We can only apply for product classification, submit the technical information they ask for, and send a sample if they request.
If the requesting party is unhappy with their decision, they can challenge their decision in the court of law, which is what we did back in 2008 over the GSG-5 rifle.

Yes, but your communication with the police essentially resulted in the FRT of the ATI version being changed to non-restricted, no? Or am I still not interpreting that correctly?

So good. BLS didnt make the call. They were called.

I dont see how IRG is the ###### I am not defending either of them. To me, this really sounds like the CFP is going on a fishing expedition trying to get something prohib. Be it BLS's version or the IRG's version.

IRG basically indirectly claimed that BLS tried to have their version classified as prohibited (when in reality it appears BLS might have actually saved their asses and by extent the asses of those who purchased the rifle through IRG). If that wasn't their intent then they should have rephrased their post because that is how it comes across and was interpreted by many here. Perhaps it was just a miscommunication all around, but as it stands, it really shines a bad light on IRG in my eyes.
