Aztech Armory - Next Scheduled Import

[scoob]

I see the polymer 80 glock compact frames are available for import to Canada again. How exactly does that work for Canadian customers with the unfinished lowers? Is it the same process as all other restricted firearms? I thought these 80 % lowers were now prohibited?

The 80% AR pattern rifle lowers are prohibited but the 80% pistol frames never were prohibited. The new classification is "restricted" and you now must provide us with a valid RPAL before purchasing. Its treated much like ammo, where we validate your license before we can process your order.

Because the frames are 80% finished, they do not have a serial number so they do not need to be registered and transferred to you at the time of the sale.

As the owner and builder of the firearm, you would need to contact your local CFO once you are ready to apply the serial number and they will provide you with the protocol for serializing and registration. This is the reason you need the RPAL to purchase the 80% frame. It is expected you will build the firearm and will then be in possession of a restricted firearm which will need to be registered with the RCMP.
Hope this helps.

Great, thanks for the info!

If the frames are neither registered or transferred to the buyer, what is to stop the part from being resold to anyone? Ghost guns?

What is to stop someone from selling a non-res to someone without a pal?

I guess I should have asked why do you need a RPAL to purchase a non registered frame? The reasoning seems mute if it not registered to the buyer. The laws are convoluted enough without resorting to psychic, fortune telling assumptions from the rcmp.

Can't wait for my purple Crickett to show up in a few weeks....

We are just happy that the RCMP trusts us 'Glock-builders' to allow us to build a restricted firearm and register it on our own recognizance.

The current shipment will arrive August 28th. The next shipment is October 2nd, cutoff for that shipment was yesterday. We will not submit our permit application for a few days so you still have time to sneak something in.
Next is November 27th, the cutoff for that import is October 16th. This will be the last shipment before Christmas and the January import date has not yet been determined. It will be after SHOT Show for sure so towards the end of January.
We do have some stock on popular items in BC so send us a note if there is something you are looking for.
We have lots of Glock complete build kits coming in next week... 80% frames, parts kits, complete slides, everything you need. Thanks.
