As well, original Armalite AR10a's that were manufactured by Fairchild Armalite (perhaps some manufactured by Artillerie Inrichtingen as well) as semi-auto only are non-restricted. There was a ruling by the courts in Alberta some years ago I believe. Very rare rifles.
Is this the Mac Macdonald case? see:http://canadiangunnutz.yuku.com/topic/1130/Status-of-Original-AR10-in-308
Mac claimed his gun was a factory semi but in reality it was Sudanese contract gun that had 1) the selector area nicely remarked. 2) a roll pin innthe sear hole. Mac won his case on a technicality, so I have been told by someone that was in the courtroom. (prosecutor/police misconduct) His rifle was nothing special and certainly not factory semiauto.
Mac is deceased and the rifle had been offered for sale a few years ago and I do not know what happened to it.
