Swiss Arms

That's the million $ question.

I don't think the importer (MD Charlton ) wants to import any until a ruling is made (my guess)

I am also waiting for a new NR

Can't blame them...I am sure the RCMP has that in mind as they likely can't rule it prohibited, but by leaving it up in the air the market place for them just sits basically still.

Any agency that can simply put anything in "question" and the response by the public is to drop it like a hot potato has way too much power IMHO. That being said I would like a NR Swiss ASAP :evil:
 
Good morning,

Unfortunately, we will not be importing SA product until the RCMP has made a decision on the status of the rifles and carbines.

This might just be what the RCMP wanted, they couldn't ban the swiss arms, but we can not buy them either. Of course I'm just speculating here.

the RCMP seized a shipment of 858 in the past didn't they? The swiss arms may suffer the same fate if a new shippment were to arrive with the status investigation still underway

The swiss arms is one of the "evil black" rifles that satan himself unleashed.... lol.

Absolutely no doubt about it. The RCMP would love nothing less then to have every semi auto deemed "evil" and prohibited to own by anyone else except themselves or other law enforcment. Then they would go after bolt action "sniper" rifles next. Unfortunately Canadians have no "right to bear arms" only the privilege to own. Just look at what happened in Australia! Getting the long gun registry eliminated was a huge win for firearms owners. Now the RCMP is pouting and trying their best to slowly chip away around the edges until they reach their agenda.

Sorry about ranting but its so obvious what they're up too with these games.... Our tax dollars hard at work.
 
has the RCMP given you any updates or could this be an indefinate thing?

No updates for some time now. We have no idea as to what the RCMP is going to determine.

A shipment of 858's was seized.


Our concerns are two-fold: seizure by CBSA, and/or having a large quantity of unsaleable inventory should the rifles reclassify.

This has been a difficult decision to make, as we are shooters here at MDC, and hate to see one of the best NR rifles in Canada unavailable.

Hopefully we will have good news in the future.

Why not order just one? That way the liability is low and it tests the various theories of what the RCMP may do.....
 
Is there any chance of seeing the "Heavy Metal" version from them ever again? (this was from back when they had the blue star and red devil versions) Do they do custom orders?
