Please do not read to much into this I said: "they sent three samples to the RCMP for examination who informed CBSA that they are prohibited"

There was a shipping screw up but that is not relevant here.

Yes. But I doubt you'll find one.
I really hope the RCMP found these to be prohibited because of a barrel length issue, thus not affecting the whole CZ 858 family. Some people only have non-restricted PAL's and own CZ's and VZ's.
Whew - glad I ditched all my restricted 858's when I read the first thread...
I'm going to guess the non-res 858's in country are going to be safe - even if the RC's prohibit them, I can't see how they plan to come after them - I didn't keep any record of the 4 I sold over the past 5 years and it's a lot of warrants to issue to search the bank records, ISP's, e-mail accounts, and servers of businesses and individuals who may have bought/sold them.

If the classification changes for the rifles already in Canada, they won't be restricted, they will be prohibited. As in confiscation.

The CSA Vz 58 is not the subject of this thread. Let's not have another thread derail into speculation hell, let's stick with the facts.

I stand corrected Mark, thank you. It could just be that they shipped the rifles with un-pinned magazines and, because the mags were in the same box as the rifles, the whole thing is deemed prohibited....we have to look at this from the RCMP's point of view; the most ridiculous and absurd reasoning.
What about the restricted CZ858 Tactical's and CZH2003 Sports?
Weren't the CZ858-2/4's built on the same receiver with the only difference in classification being the barrel length? (I really don't know).

Don't forget about the FSNs too. Which IIRC were prohibs before they were brought in, then the issues were fixed, and brought in as restricted.
John is saying that the decision applied to the rifles IN THIS SHIPMENT. Again, let's not speculate.

Well #### is all I have to say. Will wolverine carry csa vz58's or are they next on the RCMP choping block....
By the grace of John Moses Browning would you people just read what John said?
I don't think we need to panic just yet. From what John has said it seems like this only affects the last two shipments of rifles.
I am worried what this might mean in the future, but right now we shouldn't assume the worst.
Opps, double post. Lousy cell phone. Please delete.
