Well I don't want to go to jail and get my butt pumped.

Maunder screwed up on paperwork or neglected it and got pinched. Its doesn't matter if he was importing cashews from Sri Lanka. Rules are rules.

Whats with you guys and jail rape???

He already did as did a few others. You just didn't get it or won't.

No, he's been very helpful. I just want to know about the specific policies and procedures pertaining to Marstar because they are so big.

I'm not going to do anything anytime too soon.

There is so much to learn but I can only log so many hours researching by myself. I need to engage with people at some point.
 
Wasnt trying to be a dink, but the fact that John put it out pretty damn clear and you still seem to be fishing. if you want the info so bad and want to say or imply that the rules bend. then call them up and dont keep going on in here.
 
Not only is this thread turning into a farce, but it's also a classic example of some of the only negatives to our community.

I am not talking about the percieved attempt at breaking the law, but rather the communities strong fear and animosity towards anything new or outside the box. I believe I could have posted much the same thing as Johnson without having raised this much attitude simply because I'm used to what triggers long term CGN'ers into an all out flame war. From what I read, Johnson is asking:

1) How do I own an MG 42?
2) How do I own an MG 42 legally?
3) How do I own an MG 42 that will be the most fun?
4) If a semi auto MG 42 is not available, why is it not, and what steps can be taken to make one available?
5) I appear to be new to the community as it is represented by CGN, can I contribute in a way that will not only infuse new thought into the community, but can I contribute with new ideas or provoking intelligent discussion in some way bearing in mind I may be inclined to have a sense of humour at some point.



So, that leaves me with a question to Johnone: Just exactly how economically unfeasable is this SA MG 42 that you came up with?
 
That may well be what he is asking, but when it was explained to him that he cannot simply buy one of Marstars, have it shipped to a gunsmith of his choice, and deact'ed, he made a comment about bending the law.
He may have mis-spoke, but it sure attracts a lot of attention.
 
AGIT-PROP;
Thank you, you seem to understand....
I thought Perhaps I had not been clear enough, since you and others seem to get it then I can rest peacefully.

JOHNSON;
It would seem that you and I have a communications problem, I will type this s l o w l y in an effort to make myself very clear to you....


As stated by others, we follow the law, that is the ONLY healthy approach I know of.... Please take a moment to read up on what these laws are, read under the Firearms Act, in addition please consult the Controlled Goods Act.

"What if a legit buyer picked up lets say 100 M-53's and then went about deacting them? Can you compile a list of buyers?"
This is a two part question, IF an authorized buyer decides to purchase 100 units, no problem if the sale is then blessed by the authorities....
What list are you talking about here ??

"I'd also like to know why no suppliers in Canada (such as Marstar) aren't emphasizing a much, much more capitalistic approach to bringing these wares into the country?
We at Marstar are always interesting in bringin goods that we know will sell, are you saying you are interested ? If so provide a copy of your permits and CG registration, we would be pleased to quote you.

"Fly to Kragujevic " why would we go to Zastava ?? Whne the guns are in our warehouses ??

"Where can I read about Marstars internal import/export policies, I hope its public domain."
I repeat myself READ THE LAW.... Marstar is fortunate in that we have great latitude under the licenses that we have been granted, HOWEVER making up our own import/export policies is certainly NOT one of the things we can do....
OUR INTERNAL policies are not public domain, we are a private corporation, therefore our internal matters do not have to be disclosed.

If I understand the question John, the poster is asking if someone can import dewats(or maybe parts kits) from abroad since you can't dewat the ones you already have under the current laws.
 
Dewats MG's aren't making it through CBSA anymore. Parts kits are only legal IF the parts are also for a legal semi-auto version, and I ?*THINK* The importer needs to own one of them.
 
so johnone since you cant sell him a real mg 42 by bending the rules what about a nuke then? you know just bend the rules a bit.....:):):runaway:


john has LOTS of FA guns in his warehouses around the world BUT he cannot ANY way legally sell them to those of us that dont have the required FA permits for NON-grandfathered FA guns in Canada

he CANT dewatt them

he CANT cut Them up into parts kits for sale in canada

he CANT let one fall of the back of his truck for you

He CANT misplace one


now he WOULD

sell you one if it were 100% legal......its NOT

report you to rcmp if you RCMP/cfc if you attempted to purchase one with false info


attempted to get him to break the law

bottom line is 99.9% of US here on CGN CANNOT buy a very large portion of marstars inventory

I wish we could but we cant

your BEST option is to find a registered FA or CA mg42 have a dealer/gunsmith who has FA/CA on his/her bussiness license buy it for you and dewatt it you cant have the gun for even 1second untill its permently

Dewats MG's aren't making it through CBSA anymore. Parts kits are only legal IF the parts are also for a legal semi-auto version, and I ?*THINK* The importer needs to own one of them.

Even that went out the window a while back. By the old customs guideline, parts kits were OK for guys with the same gun (in F/A or C/A) to keep their guns in working order. I believe that has been removed, and since the parts are for automatic guns, they have to be imported with a import permit from DFAIT as controlled goods. Even accessories for automatics are controlled goods.

The Customs policy regarding imports of new dewats is set up as a catch 22 that make it near impossible to meet. Any dewats have to be imported as if it were a live gun to a person licensed to hold that class of gun, then certified as deactivated once the gun is in the country. So it limits who can import them, since, in theory, you are importing a non grandfathered gun. And since deactivating a non-grandfathered gun is not a legal purpose for possessing one, then how does one get the gun in the first place. This may have been intentional, or it may have been the departments not really knowing what each others rules are, but it effectively closes the doors to imports of dewats.

"So, that leaves me with a question to Johnone: Just exactly how economically unfeasable is this SA MG 42 that you came up with?"

Let me say this, if you have an extra seven figure bank account lying about doing nothing we can sit down and talk....

We own the design, we own the guns....

We have a producer ready to make the new receivers and manufcature the new guns....

And yes, they would be approvable in the US by the BATF.
