Crusader Arms Crypto

[Yuu]

The crypto was obviously an ar15 variant. The only thing that was not ar15 was the takedown pin and the mag well. Canadians love to find loopholes and hoops to jump through. Point is, it was an ar15 that was non restricted because it used a different takedown pin and made it through all the loopholes. Everyone knew this was coming. I genuinely do feel bad for the people who believed they were completely writhin the law then were duped. This is nothing new for Canada for the last 40 years. Look at the uk and Australia. We are there with them. The current government wanted us to be here and here we are

SFSS does not care whether its AR15 variant. They don't need a reasonable reason to provide as they can articulate that it is similar to it.

 

[MudChucker]

Using horizontal takedown pins, deleting the forward assist and modifying the magwell only required changing one line of code and was trivial to do? Sounds a bit off to me.

I draw parts every day, yes, literally trivial.

 

[Ungrateful]

The OIC process itself is the biggest loophole in the country. Used all the time in ways it was never meant to be used. I just wish the far-left idiots were smart enough to realize that other things could just as easily be banned by OIC... things like gaay marriage... or abortion, or...

Or gas cars or being self employed or having children. Yes I know.

How’s that relevant? Crusader has been around for years and had all that a long time ago.

The point is not whether you can spring a manufacturing business up for free, it’s whether this design required any real “design and development”. It did not.

Ah, I thought there was more to your point than that.

If it's so cheap and easy to design new or modify old firearms, why were there so incredibly few of them in Canada? Obviously since the Turd there is no money in it, but before that was the strongest demand ever in Canada for self loading sporting arms, yet 99% of what we bought was made in the States.

They make better guns in the states is why.

Fear monger much ?

An opinion based on years of dealing with the RCMP SFSS. In fact, I had the “pleasure” of dealing with the guy in charge of tracking down all the Tavor X95 MSWs, and he was very irate, and over-stepping his authority. Guaranteed they put this guy in charge of tracking down the cryptos, which I’m sure he’ll absolutely hate, and will try to lay a charge on the manufacture.

Unless CPC gets elected in a few weeks, then this all goes away. Which we should all do our absolute best at making sure happens.

It's unfortunate that your likely right.

You need a commercial license for that with all its fun insurances and other crap.

And also designing things on a computer is a lot different than actually mass producing, assembling, quality control, distributing, etc

You don't need approval from the RCMP to manufacture a NR firearms in Canada if you have a manufacturing license. Crusader Arms followed C21, it does not matter what you can do with some CAD files or what not.

"Try to lay a charge on the manufacturer" - what are you smoking?

The upper and lower receiver are not compatible with AR15, the magazines are proprietary.

The guy has dealt directly with the SFSS, he probably has no clue what he's talking about.

I had some fun ideas for a home project but that licensing thing quickly killed it

 

[Perrone123]

My gut tells me the AR will be NR when the Simplified Classification is passed by the Majority CPC Government we will elect on April 28th!
(See my signature line)

how do you have so much hope??!!

Well executed sarcasm.

 

[Colin L]

Because I've educated myself with the probabilities that a Majority Conservative Government will bring. And not by reading pessimistic drama on the internet.

what did they bring last time?

 

[Colin L]

Conservatives?
Positive changes.
History is waiting for those ready to learn.

 

[CobraGT]

what did they bring last time?

Biggest thing Consrvatives did specifically for our firearms community was the elimination of the LGR. That was huge for us, as it makes forcible confication a lot less realistic. Unforunately for some guys (like me), pretty much everything we own is restricted, so we're screwed regardless. For your average NR gun owner, though....

I ordered a Mantis Blackbeard. I will know shortly.

Any updates ?
