tantal is an ak it will not get FRT. Besides there was less then 30000 made most ended in US for free. There in very few left in Poland. Radom sold the machinery to India they won't be able to make any more Tantals. I shoot it in the army in the early 90s it will group under 5cm at 100m

^^ thanks negative nancy but they say they already have an frt
That's funny considering it has an FRT according to the manufacturer.
Boy are you ever talking out of your arse.
Here's the situation, this gun is manufactured in the US by High Standard and is called the Canadian Sporting Rifle. It already has an FRT#, as was announced by the retailer. There are no interchangeable parts with an AK, aside from furniture.
All these thread are not speculation anymore, this is all confirmed by Urban Tactical.

Extensive searching has yet to find one.
From the Urban Tactical FB page, there will be a full info release next week. Hopefully that includes an FRT number.
As it has yet to hit the market the FRT system may still need to be updated. Like any database, info needs to be entered. Numbers may be generated elsewhere other than the online database.

Can you give details as to what internals parts, if any, are interchangeable with other AK variants?
Because everything I've read online says that internal parts are unique to the gun. Outside looks like an AK, inside does not.
Bolt and bolt carrier interchange.
OK, here is a parallel. The AR-180 is prohibited. The AR-180B is not. The upper receivers are interchangeable. The lower receivers (i.e. the legal receivers) are different, and the 180B uses a different trigger mechanism. So, the AR-180B is a different rifle.
The Tantal looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, but isn't a duck, because its receiver is not an AKS-74 (named AK variant) receiver. Its receiver is a purpose built, US made receiver unique to this rifle.
Maybe this is the logic. When the FRT entry becomes available, perhaps things will be clarified.
Still doesn't explain how some firearms are deemed to be prohibited when all they share with a prohibited firearm is appearance.

Yea the tantal in it original form is an AK but they are getting these made so that parts aren't interchangeable with the ak, so in theory its not a variant.
Also 5cm groups at 100m? Nice to hear they are that accurate
The best part I think is we will get 100% polish made tantals the USA can't import military rifles so they must make the receivers and barrels themselves and those parts aren't allways as good as the polish parts.
I'll wait to see what the early reviews on the guns say. And if they're massively better than the CZ/VZ, I might consider it. As it is I am much more interested in the T97. But all that aside, non-restricted CDN AK-oid lookalikes? Excellent news, and somebody should nominate the guys who did this for the Order of Canada.
####. Urban Tacticals FB page is seriously pissing me off. First they have this secret overnight prebuy list which is sketchy as ####, then they keep deleting their posts and the comments. Like seriously, this #### is amateur at best. You can't bring a new rifle on the market and not expect people to go crazy with excitment and want more details. Dont post pictures and start a stupid unannounced pre buy if you can't handle the volume of interest.
Edit: Also, it being in 7.62x39 instead of 5.45x39 is pretty ####ing dumb too.
Edit Edit: Yes I say #### a lot, deal with it. The auto filter does.
