Type 97 Classification Issues - PART TWO

[mrsmitty]

I think I am going to ask CanAm to take my deposit from my Type 97 and transfer that to my Tavor order as well.

 

[anark]

I'm starting to think that way too....but i don't want to hang canam out to dry =T

 

[CanAm]

I would be more than happy to sell you a Tavor, and credit your T97 funds towards it.

 

[Johnny_Bigshot]

......any news?

 

[nikoinwinnipeg]

well the t97 was not produced by Isrielis thats why its not all fine and dandy!

we cant support the chinese now !

stupid!

 

[shootemup]

I'm going to stick it out...I'll wait as long as it takes for the decision to release them...any updates CanAm?

 

[THX-1138]

I'd just call CanAm, and ask for an update

I wonder if the registry vote in Parliament yesterday will be a good or bad thing in terms of us getting our Type-97's? I can see someone up the chain thinking now, "Hmmm, those scary black rifles won't have to be registered???"

Almost a year and a half with my 1000 bucks sitting in Canam's account, waiting to be turned into my Type-97 ....can't help but wonder.

 

[CHAO5]

lol, I had the same thought

 

[Clobbersauras]

We were close to having the long gun registry repealed early last year and a whole bunch of scary black rifles were coming into the country. Obviously something had to be done since they were:

INEXPENSIVE

"BULLPUP"

NON-RESTRICTED

How would the RCMP track all these scary rifles?

So they came up with a way to deem them prohib...sort of...since their official position is that the "legal classification of the rifles is currently under review". So there they sit in legal limbo...it should not be allowed, but who has the money to fight them?

Were there problems with the rifles?

Well, that depends on how you interpret the law in this area.

If you check threads surrounding Marstar's VZ 58 problems, issues with legal ten round pistol mags for the Brugger and Thomet TP9, classification issues with the CSG5 and a whole host of others you, will find numerous inconsistencies with the way the RCMP interprets the law to suit their agenda.

Has anyone had a talk with CanAm lately.. Any reason to call him and ask?

 

[employee]

They are still working on it....not giving up....

Im still holding on that I will one day be decimating the gopher population in the pasture near the farm with this rifle, thus my money will stay in the coffers of canada ammo for the time being...
I want my damn gun though...

i hope they get this sorted, this is gonna be bigger than the vz. 58 if they finally make it in. i called canam but the person on the phone was not informative at all about the issue.

 

[Deckard]

Not informative at all? Vexing.

The grapevine is saying a small shipment of modified t97 is coming soon. if that is truth i hope this one will go thru.

Any details on this? Been over a year since I placed my order, I really want my T97

 

[blupul]

[Slyder73]

I see new posts on this thread, click to see whats is up and had my fingers crossed that Santa had arrived early, and the T-97's were finally released!
Ah well....
