Bushmaster M17S Bullpup Rifle

[Greg-Guy]

Hi There

Does anyone know if the Bushmaster M17S Bullpup Rifle, is restricted? Sure looks like a great bullpup rifle. I would love to shoot it with the 10 round ARP mags.

By rights it should be non-restricted with the 18.5 inch barrel. However, I believe the FRT lists it as prohib.

All I could find on the prohib by name list was the "Bushmaster Auto Rifle and all variants" whatever the f--- that means. I didn't realise there was a rifle specifically known as The Bushmaster Auto Rifle.

There is and the ruling on the M17s could and hopefully will be challenged by someone.

I just did a Google to see what it is we are talking about.

I think the FART refers to this one.
