Heads up! Marstar's page is up for STG44,BD38,BD3008

HAPPY DUDE;
Let me reply with the greatest accuracy regarding the mags....
1st) We get the import permit to our facility in Europe so they can be modified.

2nd) We get the import permit from our country of destination so these mags can be made safe for Canadian shooters.

3rd) Then we file for the IIC in Canada

4) We file for the export papers from our facility to Canada.

5) Then pressure Canada Customs to RUSH them through and clear the shipment with great haste.... Of course if they complain I will explain that you are waiting and require immediate delivery....

All told I would estimate they should be here yesterday if not sooner....
Regards John

We may be getting mixed up again. :confused: I'm interested in the .22lr version of the BD-44 and the .22lr high capacity magazines. NOT the 7.92mm magazines. Are we looking at weeks or months for a delivery time?

In any case, good job on bringing in all the new stuff, now where are the Garands :p ?
 
John might not know. As stated in the thread, the FRT numbers exist. it's likely a matter of supplier making enough and them then clearing customs. Neither are things John can control or forecast accurately - not his fault!
 
HAPPY DUDE; Oops sorry,the extra mags (.22cal) will be available at the same time as the guns....
The garands will come, for the moment I would prefer not to discuss them for fear of receiving a zillion e mail requesting the exact delivery date and time.... Suffice to say we have been working on this deal for many years.
Best Regards
John
 
A general question to no one in particular...

I heard recently that importers now have to stamp the firearms they bring in with some sort of importer identification. Is this a proposed law or now in practice?

OK people; The reason that many of the "reproductions" made in the USA are NOT imported into Canada is the facxt that they are rewelding cut receivers...
The people in Ottawa classify the as machine guns sice they were FAs before they were cut and therefore still are.

The law is the same in the US as well, once a machine gun, always a machine gun. Rewelding a torched MG receiver to make a firearm is completely illegal there too.
Now that you have the final production versions of the STG and MP, send one of each to Norinco so they can make us some affordable versions.....:)
 
HITZY;
Once more I must bow to your extensive and complete knowledge in this area....
We have been the largest foreign supplier of weapons and class-111 material to the US market for over 20 years.... We are registered with both the AFT and the US State Dept.
Therefore if you say so it must be so....

As for sending these units to China to lower the cost, come now, you are the first one to put down Norinco quality.

Don't worry John, there is tons of #### you don't know. Look up MKS and their rewelded M14 receivers and tell the ATF (not AFT you allude to) they are wrong cause you are "registered" with them......:rolleyes:
Find one thread I trash Norinco in and I'll start buying from your shop again.:D
 
Damn, I'd love to get my hands on one of those.

A little off topic, but is there anything else chambered in 7.92 kurz? Looks like a cool little cartridge.

Well, as a matter of fact, there were very, very, very few G/K43's (experimentals) chambered in 7.92X33, doubt you will find one though!
 
Hitzy, the MKS example is a BAD one. Mks from 1998 onward was manufacturing M14 receivers from 1 cut demilled receivers. From 1997 onward, the US demil spec changed to 3 cut.

Current "rewelds" need ATF inspection, an approval letter and a manufacturing license. The process of jigging and rewelding more receivers is nearly as expensive as building a new one that will be better and stronger.

MKS went to court and LOST to the BATF. They had even forged their BATF letter. ALL MKS M14 receivers were seized by the US government a few years ago - they went house to house to do it - and subsequently destroyed. Since that time, M14 receivers are demilled in such a way that one of the cuts goes through the receiver ring, making rewelding virtually impossible.

That being said, some Bren, MG34 and MG42 rewels are being commercially sold from 3 cut receiver demils. They have modified bolts and FCGs and BATF approval. The Bren semi receiver often discussed here though, is CNC machined as a new receiver by Historic Arms.
 
CLAVEN2;
How dare you correct our friend....
Thanks for the "back up"nice to know you are one of the old fashion type, read, research, learn....then discuss
Best Regards

First, thanks to Marstar for making these available to Canadian shooters.

Secondly, I don't consider myself a pauper but $3,000 is way out of my price range and consideration for a 5 rd. semi-auto anything.

Here's a comment for you guys who keep slagging the members here for saying the price is too rich for their blood or they should be available in other calibers to shoot more affordably.

STFU, and put your money where your mouth is. :p

Holy crap batman! I can't swing 3k for one either, my wife would cut my nutz off. But I still think the price is fair based on the facts I presented. Also as for the caliber, again if you want it in x39mm then you will be buying a CZ-858. What is so hard to understand here?? Why did I EVEN TAKE THE BAIT...:bangHead: :bangHead: :bangHead:
