Now, before I go too far...I have very little knowledge concerning black rifles and the like. So, the other day I found a really cool modular bullpup stock kit for SKS, 10/22, and Remington 597 out of the U.S. I asked a buddy of mine how come I havent seen these before, and the only answer I got was "dunno, think they are prohib."
So can someone kindly explain why an aftermarket bullpup stock kit for non-restricted rifles would be prohib? Especially since we have the T97 and Tavor NR bullpups available? No joke, im really curious about this.

Thanks in advance,
Standingtall
 
Here you go, OIC No. 9 was an poor attempt to fix a poorly written classification criteria.

Former Prohibited Weapons Order, No. 9

1. Any electrical or mechanical device that is designed or adapted to operate the trigger mechanism of a semi-automatic firearm for the purpose of causing the firearm to discharge cartridges in rapid succession.

2. Any rifle, shotgun or carbine stock of the type known as the “bull-pup” design, being a stock that, when combined with a firearm, reduces the overall length of the firearm such that a substantial part of the reloading action or the magazine-well is located behind the trigger of the firearm when it is held in the normal firing position.

In English, what that means is that the STOCK is a prohibited DEVICE.
A complete FIREARM that has the stock and receiver as one, is fine.
