Building one from a receiver is not the same as buying a complete rifle.
I won't comment on your dremel application.
I bought mine as a complete rifle and it works excellent. I have never bought anything from them before but this is a no brainer if you don't mind spending the money. Does it cost too much for what it is? Sure but what don't Canadians buy that isn't overpriced? Compare you cell phone cost to other places, compare gas prices ect. As far as the mag well goes if it is legal why not do it?
Dont need your comments about anything really. Just giving the people facts. This is a complete built and it runs like a tank. Not from a receiver set
Nothing to comment about, this is straight from the Gov of Canada website
Former Bill C-21 amended the definition of "prohibited firearm" in the Criminal Code to add a new category of firearms that meet certain technical criteria. Firearms designed and manufactured on or after December 15, 2023, and that meet the following criteria are prohibited:
A firearm that:
- is not a handgun
- discharges centre-fire ammunition in a semi-automatic manner; and
- was originally designed with a detachable cartridge magazine with a capacity of six cartridges or more.
A Crypto with a magazine well that's been "enhanced" still was originally designed with a detachable cartridge magazine that held 5 cartridges.
I did not say it is illegal. It is really up to you. I have the same opinion on SKS to accept XCR magazines.
Here is some interesting info in regards to Beowulf magazines:

"The RCMP has taken the stand that those are prohibited devices under the criminal code"

I agree so enjoy while you can. It's been made very clear that they will do as they please. If you think your single shot break action is not on the table you are fooling yourself.
Yes exactly my point. Wether the R18 Gen 3 has an FRT or not is irrelevant. It would be treated just the same as the crypto in an upcoming ban. You really cannot rely on FRTs.
If you have a quarantined AR in your lockup, the cost is for the upper and lower receivers. Buying the receivers makes the most sense if you already have the parts to complete.
If you buy the receivers and then all the rest of the necessary parts, it might be better to just buy a rifle. There are a lot of parts to source, and supplies are not what they once were. Of course, if you assemble the rifle yourself, you have control over everything going into it. Could wind up with a premium rifle. Use economy Brand X parts and wind up with something that is ho-hum.
Its a stock crusaders rifle. Just has the magwell modded and a vortex 3x optic, trigger tech & magpul grip. Bone stock guts
How did you mod the magwell? I looked at it and going at it with a dremel seems as if you can easily botch it.
All ARs were restricted and thus most had 16" or shorter barrels. So add 18.6 (harder to find) or more common 20" barrel and HG and gas tube and very likely gas block. And some tools to assemble it. Quickly adds up.
Yeah it makes sense to buy the complete crypto rifle. I also believe that all the parts in it are mil spec
A machine shop did it. Like i stated, this is not my rifle. Its my friends. But a file would suffice.
Call any machine shop they would be glad to take it on.
Could you post a picture please.
No, sorry. Rifle is not in my possession and i wont see my friend for a few weeks as I am in the US right now. I would ask him for photos but he barely even wanted me taking ones of the rifle originally lol.
