That's why you work with the RCMP during the design stage. It's far easier to get the go ahead if you make a design, submit it to the RCMP asking how to keep it non-restricted. They will come back with their requirements on the design to be non-restricted and that way you get your rifle built and they feel like they still have the big swinging #### telling you what to do.The problem of making stuff for the Candian market is great, especially wheras you have to submit the rifle for examination, and won't even know if it's going to make it, and the rulings sometimes seem....a bit....arbitrary or bizarre.
