It is only relevant if the necessary parts to convert the rifle to automatic fire are available in the first instance, which they are NOT. Unless someone can show me where in Canada I can retail-purchase a full-auto Trigger Pack, Bolt Carrier and other assorted (and prohibited?) X95 parts necessary to convert the MSW to full-automatic, I will stand by my contention that such parts are NOT readily available to law-abiding Canadian firearms owners. If factory drop-in parts are not readily available to Canadian consumers, then they would have to be fabricated. That does not meet the definition of "being readily convertible". But that is just my logic (not a judge's), so take it for what it's worth, but that would be the basis of my argument against "readily convertible".
Notwithstanding the apparent ability of Canadian courts to rule in the absurd, the fact is that an object cannot possibly be something that it is not nor ever was. In the case of the MSW, they were NEVER full-auto firearms. As a result, they cannot possibly be "converted-automatic" firearms. They were manufactured semi-automatic from the factory, as indicated by the IWI factory literature. Yes, there is an obvious typo in the description of semi-auto Selector markings, but so what? The factory could easily clarify that mistake if contacted. The MSWs have been semi-automatic firearms from the outset, and nothing has been done to change that fact, notwithstanding the Lab's incorrect determination.
