While we do appreciate you taking the time to post here and indicate your wish list may I suggest that before posting you make yourselves familiar with the Canadian laws regarding firearms and the various classifications.
You are only further frustrating yourselves with "I want a Thompson, a Canadian legal FN, a legal H&K rifle, etc, etc" all these are named and classed prohib, so how would you get them into the country and sell them ??

Yes I understand, many of us want various firearms that the authorities are denying ownership on one basis or another, but unless the laws are changed we are going to have to live with the status quo....

As for other models of firearms that are legal in Canada we will continue to do our best to purchase, import and offer them in a timely manner

I think most people here understand this and instead, want a chinese copy of the prohibited stuff in such a way that would make it legal. For example, some firearms are in the prohibited category because they were semi-auto conversions FROM full-auto. So people just want a copy made from the ground up as a semi-auto and not accept full auto parts. Voila! Problem solved.

At least, thats my understanding.
 
^^That doesn't work with "named" variants, If you make a Thompson with a semi auto receiver (which they do in the US) it is still a Thompson and as such is prohibited. Even rifles with only a cosmetic similarity with a prohibited rifle can be banned ie. the Armi Jager 22LR.

Ooooo...... Now your talking..... Wish it could be non-restricted.
 
I'm going to say it again. Probably for the third time. But the AR180B. It's non-restricted, and it wasn't banned or anything, it's Just armalite stopped making them due to lack of sales. This is about as close as we can get to an AR-15 while still staying in the non-restricted class. Armalite sold them for alot lower than the AR15; maybe Norinco can do the same. Considering Marstar has the Norinco CQ-A listed for $699, I think with a Norinco AR180B we could end up with a non-restricted black rifle for a very good price. And a lower price has better potential of achieving the kind of unit volume we'd need to get something like this made.

If Armalite stopped production due to poor sales, in a much bigger market.... What makes you think one could do better in the very small Canadian market ?

Hello... I would like anything in 22wmr. Please look to AMT or Kel-tec, following the 1911 frame. I have both and LOVE THEM, Instant wood when I fire them. Also 22wmr in rifle, pump, lever, semi-auto, sniper style or general plinking. Please look to Kel-tec RMR, Excel arms Accelerator in 22WMR.

Thank you for your time and attention...

The fact it's non-restricted here. I'd be down for one.

I agree with this... I imagine in the USA the AR180 failed because there was no incentive to buy one over the common and established AR15 platform. This would be something specific for Canada that we would be free to take out to the woods, etc.

Of course the receiver is the important part, so we would want this to accept AR-15 furniture even if they weren't functional. :D I'd like it to take A2 style butt stocks and have a barrel nut/D-ring arrangement. Such a non-restricted beast that takes nearly all AR-style accessories might even become popular enough to threaten the Canadian AR-15 market, unless you absolutely must have the charging handle/forward assist arrangement, which I find very cool but not critical.

Norinco pricing and the non-restricted classification. You have great prices on Norinco M305, CQ-A., and SKS's. The AR180B was priced fairly low in the US, but in Canada it was still around the $1000 mark. You said before you'd need 5-6000 units in order to get anything new from Norinco. Is there any point us suggesting anything Norinco doesn't already make?
