It's not a USA design, it is not and never will be allowed.
When Canadian troops carried it, there was a shortage of rifles available and a war raging across the globe. Since then we produced the Arrow, it was scrapped and all evidence that it existed was erased, we have a treaty and it was enforced.
That is just the way it is. And some wonder why the Arabs hate the USA.
