The stock itself...............
realy??? what is the Tavor add doing on top
of the CGN adds?????
you mean to tell me that if you have a TAVOR rifle
you can't take it apart to clean it as you would be breaking
the law as you would have a bullpup stock that is prohibited??? this don,t make sence to me.
do u by the regs handy that says bullpup stock are
prohib????
What Canadian gun laws do make sense?
If the gun will fire via the trigger without the bullpup stock then the stock is prohibited.
Does this include homemade bullpup stocks? Thought I read about someone making one for an SKS a few years back.
Would you have to have a completely new receiver and stock to make a legal bullpup? Or just modify a 10/22 for example not to fire without the stock?
Look up the Walther G22 to see a bullpup that made it into the country but was later made prohib but the owners can't sell them and were not compensated or given prohib PALs.
PS - there is only one "d" in "ad", short for advertisement.
Fudd
so the tavor is leagle by a loop hole. i wonder
how long it will take before that hole is pluged??
these gun laws never cease to ammaze me. these
law makers must be on drugs.
The Walther G22 stock was ruled to be a prohibited device. Transfers of complete rifles have been frozen pending resolution of the situation.
Compensation is not an issue at this time because the G22 owners still have their rifles, although there is no current mechanism for compensation if the powers that be change their minds after the fact. Owners could not be given a PAL with a prohib. class endorsement because there is no 12(X) class for bullpup stocks.
The Tavor is not legal by a loophole. It is just plain legal, and non-restricted. The law specifically states that bullpup stocks are prohibited - you can read the exact text above - and the design of the Tavor does not incorporate a separate stock. When the law was drafted, it was aftermarket stocks like the Muzzlelite units for the 10/22 and Mini-14 that were the likely targets. The G22 stock got included because of an interpretation. Incidentally, you aren't missing much by not being able to get a Muzzlelite for your 10/22. Chap I knew had one before they were outlawed, and they are really nothing special.
Please enlighten me. According to this:
2. Any rifle, shotgun or carbine stock of the type known as the "bull-pup" design, being a stock that, when combined with a firearm, reduces the overall length of the firearm such that a substantial part of the reloading action or the magazine-well is located behind the trigger of the firearm when it is held in the normal firing position...
What bullpup stock does not place a substantial part of the reloading action/mag-well behind the trigger?
Thanks.
Bullpups do not have separate stocks. You butt your shoulder against the rear of the receiver. The word "combined" is the operative one above.
