This is definitely very relevant to the black and green rifles. Please take a look.

I figured we'd be at $10k by now.

Well, I'll put my $ where my mouth is... $50 going out tomorrow.

Yeesh... bad time for this to come up. That is at least for anyone else who's feeling the void from holiday wallet burning. Likewise, I'll be happy to donote in a month or so.

Good to see this illogical bullshat being fought.

Just wrote up the 200 dollar cheque. Will be mailing it out tomorrow.

[Paul Morrison]

Keep them coming boys!

This is for all the 'variants'. We HAVE to win this.

 

[CanAm]

Think SAIGA rifles people

I read thru the decision and it left me feeling optimistic.

Sent a donation today. Not a lot, but pennies make dollars.

 

[Merch]

Mine will be in the mail tomorrow.

 

[Sinasta]

Maybe some sponsors can offer a certain % for a limited amount of time on products sold.

 

[mrsmitty]

Just mailed out the 200 dollar cheque.

Think SAIGA rifles people

HOLY FLYING BATMAN!!! CanAm, if this was to be the case, you can count me IN as your FIRST customer for a Saiga rifle!

Guys, THINK ABOUT IT!!! We NEED to win!!! And to win this one, we need to put our money where our mouth is!

IT'S TIME TO PUSH BACK AGAINST UNJUST RULINGS!!!

Cheers
Jay

Saiga's just one example, think of all the 'variants' that really aren't, Dragunovs, DSA Arms, etc. etc, the list is very, very long and until now very arbitrary. This is our opportunity to force some reasonable standards on what constitutes a variant. We don't get many opportunities like this, we can't afford to blow it.

 

[Paul Morrison]

This ruling WILL NOT affect Dragunov's, as they are specifically named in the regulations. I also doubt it would affect the DSA's, or Saiga's, since they are very closely related to the firearms they are alleged to be variants of.

What it would solve are the variants based solely on cosmetic appearance. Rifles like the UMAREX line of rifles, S&W MP-15, GSG-5, and any other future rifle that shares no common parts but bears a cosmetic relationship to the original.

 

[Paul Morrison]

...However, once we win this one, I think we should pick new test cases for other aspects of the 'variant' issue. I say once we win because we WILL win.

 

[Dosing]

Perhaps a sticky at the top of EVERY forum, I dont think people know this case is unfolding, or how important it could ultimately be.

 

[1Way]

Sent a little bit. Perhaps I can send a little more down the road.

 

[Antoine22]

Mark my words, I will mail a cheque tomorrow. I hope that at least 1 CGNer will do the same.

Bumping this with a thought (yes, it occasionally happens) I just had...

How much did you spend on various lottery tickets last year? What were your odds of winning?

Now think of the payoff if everyone here sent their lottery ticket monies to this legal fund instead...what would the odds of winning be then?
