i'll get you caught up to speed...

interested-in-thompson-M1928A1-but-can't-get-one-prohibited-status-someone-recommended-10/22-"dress-up"

now that i've caught you up- where the heck can a canadian get one these kits? they exist- 'cause from the digging i've done online, i found a company in the states that makes the kit, but they don't export.
and i did hear about a company in montreal that was making kits, but apparently they've gone silent, and there's absolutely no record of them online.
so i was thinking "what section of the CGN would yield the most results to this question i've been having?"
"RIMFIRE of course!"

so what have ye?

Fabsports used to sell a Canadian kit. Out of stock now, made by a fellow CGN'r. A few turn up on the EE, but they're not cheap.keep yourveyes open.

I had one of Fabsports' up for sale a couple weeks ago. Maybe I had too high a price on it, but its true, they are expensive.

It would be nice to see the ones Fabsports was selling manufactured again. More options for 10/22 kits on the market are always better.

For many reasons :

- It's not profitable, win around 30 $ each kit

- Machinist want only made big qty (50 unit), need pay all the batch (more than 20 000 $ with fake mags), finally when it's here customers say kit are too expensive and fun gun kit in USA are lower price...

Oniy fun (like I made FS556 before) for put his name on history and the challenge and now these kits are collector

And now you have VTR, SR22 and all other.
