    Importation of new rifles eg, Cetme L, Hellion, M249S, etc.

    Since the importation and submittal to the RCMP SFSS for a new firearm is a pretty risky endeavor, is there any chance you guys could do a pseudo sticker draw for the importation of a new model of firearm? Eg, The cost to purchase and import a Marcolmar Cetme L is about $2500. If there is a "sticker draw" of 125 stickers for $20each, then that would cover the cost to import the rifle and submit it to the RCMP SFSS for an FRT#. If successful, then a winner could be drawn from the 125 stickers for the ownership of the rifle. If unsuccessful, then we lose $20each, which in reality is not a huge loss.

    Just off the top of my head, I could think of a few different firearms that could be imported and submitted:
    -Marcolmar Cetme L


    -FN M249S


    -Springfield Hellion


    -PSA STG44

    Sticker draws are a dubiously legal scam and $2500 is nothing for a business… I’m sure IRunGuns is well aware of the market potential for these guns and they are not just ignoring importation because of the cost to purchase one of them for inspection.

    BTW another business is already in the process of getting approval for the CETME (taking several years) and a number of semi “machine guns” like the 249S are already legal for import.

    Isn't the export of belt fed weapons prohibited out of the states besides for LE/Mil end users due to some obscure ITAR regulation? IRG made a post about it in the past.
    If you guys can actually get M249S’s im gunna be really salty after buying a belt fed here haha

    I'm curious if anyone thinks that a legal semi auto belt fed SAW would be less than $15k.

    I sure don't think it would.
