RPD Update.

Hi Guys,
Just back up from working in Florida. Update to FRT is, the lab and William Etter say we are in the queue. To when we were told to contact the 'library custodian' at the lab, who apparently has the order list. We have asked the custodian and have not received a response. I asked the techs again today and they say, 'in the queue'.
As soon as I hear anything further, I will happily let you know.
All the best,
Walter

If TV-PressPass can get an email from he RCMP with an estimated FRT completion date, why cant we?

Background: He submitted a VZ58 pistol for FRT and just posted the email back from the RCMP telling him an ETA.

If TV Press Pass could let me know who sent him this info I'd really appreciate it.

Reviews of Project Guns in the US are good when it comes to quality, but middle of the ground when it comes to fast turn around. Quality work takes time. If their work is worth the hype regarding quality, I'll wait for them to finish should it not yet be done.

I have now examined all RPD manufacturers work, as PG fixes the rest of them! PGs parts and work is TOPS. Some of the other manufacturers have produced fire control groups that just don't work, or don't work for long. While some produce parts that are hand filed, PGs parts are manufactured by a shop that otherwise produces titanium medical and dental parts, including the parts that get installed into humans. Comparing their parts to some others is like comparing Darra to NASA.

they were to go to be upgraded right away so they are ready to ship as soon as the frt being issued. given its been many months that should be done. He had said he was doing that of his own accord at the time remember. we paid in advance so all isdone and ready to ship thats why we committed. If they have not done the upgrades I am not sure I want to wait, cause that means that even after frt issued we will wait long and that was not the deal.
Fact we are not getting a reply to this simple question having put our good money down ages ago is not right in my books.Its a simple yes or no. He had said it was being done he said he went down there to see it and there were not a ton of guns to do. yes or no?!

Meaning, I understand, ready for the inspection report to be written. I know they have taken the photos of the guns for the FRT.
Also told that the RCMP shooting in Moncton had tied up the lab for a while.

Tied up in what, trying to find a way to prohibit the norc m305?

Anyway the way it's so slow you'd think there was only one guy working there 20h a week and was sick half the time...

what happened to them being imported to canada once complete and await frt at your store?

Offered with best intentions, and paperwork complete for temp export on the US side. However if done, and if classification decision went negative, we are told there would be issues on the CDN legal side sending the guns back to the USA (export of 'machine guns'). Best protection for everyone who wants one of these rifles is to do it 'right' and wait for the FRT. Right now no one is being set up for an arbitrary fall. Please keep in mind that those who do the review also read this thread.

This report will reveal the status of the FRT, either approved or prohib? Is there additional steps after the report is written?

The FRT, step-by-step process is somewhat of a mystery.

Yes, the inspection report results in the FRT. All semi-auto rifles with 'military lineage' require inspection prior to the issue of the FRT, since the T97 saga.

*Edited to add the words 'semi-auto'

Not to put the carriage before the horse... The project is in the last stage, so to speak? Interesting! One would figure the written report would be generated fairly quickly, but then again...

I hope the report comes soon, closure will be welcomed.

Thanks for your hard work Walter and company.
