Is this a Prohibited or A restricted Weapon
 
1 Attachment(s)
I am wondering about under what classifications is this rifle a Desert Tech MDR .308. I believe it is just a restricted weapon. I just need to be sure. Thank you

The forum isnt the best place to determine legal classification. Best check with the rcmp. Im not sure if that desert tech has finished being classified yet, as it is pretty new.

I am pretty sure Nyksta is right, still being assessed for classification.

It is a firearm not a weapon.

Wait a few weeks, and all restricted firearms may soon become prohibited.

I thought they were offering a version with longer barrel so I would guess that would fall under non-restricted like the Tavor, but we will have to wait and see what they classify it as...

If you have a military background it’s a weapon all day.

Not gonna happen this year,too much risk of political suicide for Libtards.
Even if they did decide to play with that hot potato,there won’t be time to pass legislation before election.....when God willing,Turdo and most of his caucus will be filing for EI. 🙏

Rifleman's Creed

This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My rifle is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Without me, my rifle is useless. Without my rifle, I am useless. I must fire my rifle true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must shoot him before he shoots me. I will ...

My rifle and I know that what counts in war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit ...

My rifle is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its barrel. I will keep my rifle clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will ...

Before God, I swear this creed. My rifle and I are the defenders of my country. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life.

So be it, until victory is America's and there is no enemy, but peace!

Yea right. They get a beautiful monthly cheque for the rest of their life to thank them for their 4 years of outstanding service to our country.

Don’t they need to get re-elected to a 2nd term for lifetime pension?
.......or did they simply vote to change that for themselves,no surprise?

Just saw over on CGN that this firearm has been classified as prohibited.

Wow! I started following the MDR production years ago, wondering when it would arrive in Canada. Never it seems, if the CGN news is true. The forum writings could be incorrect though.

The Calgary Shooting Centre has posted a copy of the letter from the RCMP on their dealer forum on CGN. "Bad Valentine's Gift" is the topic title. Seems legit, although I question a lot of things these days.
