If there were any guarantees with the rcmp lab, maybe worth considering. The pump or straight pull anyways. Purchasing a lever action tactical looking rifle for 2k and having it prohibited to "safe queen", I wouldn't feel like 'oh well at least I still have it', id more likely be pissed that I had been tricked into buying a "safe ditch pig". And why don't companies submit them to the 'experts' before taking our money? Maybe my own personal opinion but not so sure all the companies coming to market with these cope options have anything but a quick sell - make a few bucks mindset and not our best interests in mind.
