    we need Modern sporter 180 or ATRS 180

    I was wondering if ATRS wants to start a new one (180 platform ) .
    concealed carry will save lives.

    With so many others making 180 clones and given the current relationship with the rcmp/sfss whom I seriously doubt would approve anything we make now I don't see any point in investing what little funds I have. The lawsuit has pretty much tapped my resources out AND I suspect if we did venture down that road as soon as we got things into production another OIC would be passed to prohibit/torpedo the project and us again.
    Once our law suit is concluded we will re-evaluate our business plan. For now however simple survival is the plan.

    Worse then that, I don't think the RCMP would even require a new OIC. I suspect that if WE made a 180 they would find it in their wisdom to determine that the 180 is related to something or other, and it would cause ALL 180's to become prohib.

    No more news yet on the law suit yet, the verbal arguments for motions filed was on June 29th, and the Associate Chief Justice reserved decision (not a surprise), and we're still awaiting that decision before it moves on.

    Court decisions and hearing dates can be looked up at : https://www.fct-cf.gc.ca/

    That’s why we need a provincial police force and get rid of the rcmp Trudeau’s lap dogs

    Although ATRS is unable to market their own 180 design for the reasons noted in this thread, they may still be able to contribute to a high quality 180 firearm. SBI in Sherwood Park is working on a direct impingement against a 180 recoil system upper to complement their recently released Lynx 180 lower. As far as I know, they do not currently make barrels, gas tubes or hand guards in house. Perhaps ATRS could provide their wonderful high end forend components and other parts to SBI to make complete Lynx rifles a true premium 180 option? Just a thought.

    ATRS could probably make up some nice pencil barrels for the 180 platforms.

    Guaranteed they would sell well.

    Everyone hates the ridiculously heavy barrels they come with.
    And no other barrels are available.

    Agreed on the demand for some nice pencil barrels!

    Having a quality Canadian manufacturer available to buy some Gucci 180 upgrades definitely sounds like a solid business plan. The market for these rifles grows every day. I'm guessing the MCR/WK is now the top selling center fire semi auto in current production.
