People have nothing better to but hold grudges and complain frequently and often like their opinion matters.

I'm hoping for the NEA 25. First for the non restricted status and second that it's a decent Product. Hope, yes. Blind faith, not a chance.

Didn't say forget.
Just move on.

Dudes......the FRT already lists the NEA25 as restricted due to "the firearm of the design commonly known as the m-16 rifle, and any variant of modified version of it". Unless NEA can suddenly change the opinions of the RCMP of what is considered a "variant" then the whole NR classification is nothing more than a pipe dream.

The NEA25/AR102 is based on the AR-10 design which predates the AR-15/M-16 design and therefore cannot be a variant.
I doubt NEA would be hinting at NR status if they didn't think there was a possibility of it being classified NR.

Is this what we are talking about?
Yes, or at least that is the teaser that NEA is putting on their facebook page

Sorry dude but that exactly what the FRT states. I just looked at it. NEA is trying to dispute exactly what you claim and therfor change the opinion of the RCMP. At this time, the FRT lists the NEA25 as an AR15 variant. Since you sound so confident in your ability to prove me wrong, go check the FRT yourself.
Exactly....however some members feel like I am lying for telling them this because of what NEA has been TRYING to do.

I'm not so familiar with the FRT stuff, my question is, can NEA ask for a change in the status from FRT "R" to FRT "NR" if they can prove that it's not a variant?
Looks like right now it sits at FRT "R"

My understanding is that the "NEA25" got a R classification and they're resubmitting, with the necessary alterations, as the "AR102", the status of which will hopefully be known early in the new year.

tagged for interest. Would like to see how one of these would do up against a m305 build.

They can challenge it but success of a challenge has been a rare thing.

That was my understanding from their previous Facebook posts as well,hence the name change from NEA25 to the NEA102
But again, you challenged me on the fact that I stated the FRT lists the NEA25 as an M16 variant when in fact IT DOES. An FRT existed for this rifle for some time now however people keep hanging on to hope that its going to be NR. With the current state of affairs, I highly doubt that NEA will be able to change the mind of the RCMP in regards to the "Ar10 pre dates the AR15" arguement. If that does happen, then pretty much every AR10 variant will have to change status to NR which we know wont happen.
