Is that a mag-fed cougar?

Is that real, or just a photoshop?

My emails to the lab get no response. It seems this way with several models being reviewed.

Thank you, Chris. I appreciate the responce.

So lets pretend the 1919 get approved. How long from then until I can buy one? just genreally speaking. I realize it probably varies but do you have any kind of guess-timate?

11 months in... Any news.

 

[CanAm]

Nope, it has now been a year with no word from the RCMP on the classification.

You're a more patient man than I...

 

[Justins1877]

Ok, that's just ridiculous. 1 year without word one on whether they've even looked at it, or it's status? What recourse do you have, Canam?

bumped.

wow and i thought that these things were already in circulation from seeing this thread a long time ago... the RCMP is really getting bad with these classifications! there are a number of other firearms that have yet to be classified, and have been in their possession for a long time.

 

[Tuco Pike]

Yet another reason why the RCMP should be disbanded. Just another disgrace to add to the ever growing list.

 

[TheGamerXxX]

I dont think disbanded... but I wouldnt mind seeing somebody else take over the classification that can also be impartial.

And mostly because the backlog/long waiting times suck.

I would imagine they have a few other duties besides classifying your adult gun-toys.

That being said, I wish they'd get on classifying the ISSC MK22, I need a new toy.

" I would imagine they have a few other duties besides classifying your adult gun-toys."

No; These aren't traffic cops who deal with firearm classifications in their spare time.

Firearm classification is their actual job. And they aren't doing it.

 

[Kveldulf]

Probably just waiting for the election to be over so they would have a better idea what to allow and what to outlaw.

How about the CSSA handling the Classification of new firearms ?
;-)

 

[dHb]

Yeah, this should be easy. The criminal code says a firearm is restricted if, "The firearm of the design commonly known as the M-16 rifle, and any variant or modified version of it." Now how does the law define variant? Oh, it doesn't! Let's check Webster's dictionary, "variant: varying usually slightly from the standard form"

So does the criminal code mean for us to use that definition of variant? Is the varying a matter of operation, power, cosmetics, or something else? Until the courts deal with the ambiguity anything that looks kinda, sorta like an AR if you squint could be declared a restricted firearm, even if it is a single shot airgun.

How long should it take someone to propose a legal classification on the basis of an ambiguous regulation? At least we've got this forum to come up with a definative answer to that question...
