    Not sure why they would expect an obstructionist police force to actually do their jobs instead of the usual Go Slow, which I'm certain has more to do with the anti gun culture than it has with staffing.

    I assumed they had some actual solid information when it was announced, rather than a stopwatch and the timetable of a former minister from a previous government....


    Did this rifle ever get its NR status? I need a semi auto 308 that is not a norinco!

    I read here in the comments that it did at twice the price..

      It's still stuck in FRT hell at the lab. If it had made it out, I'd already have one.

        Hype machine starts rolling, RCMP sees it, decides to take their sweet time and kill all hopes/hype. NEA should have shut up until they got an FRT and started the hype machine up then.

          Still nothing eh? I'm tempted to file an ATIP for 5 bucks just to see what place this firearm is at in the classification queue. As long as this is NR and I get it before deer season I'll be okay.

            I think this has jumped the shark and is being eaten by a polar bear...

            The Bison aren't gonna crap this out anytime soon...

                    Hoping it's a go....had the cash saved up ready to buy a few months ago, bought a tikka varmint. ...have the cash saved up again for the 102, don't know how much longer I can resist not buying the Safari Express my LGS has in stock.

                      Glad to hear.
                      On an unrelated note, does anyone know what a kidney goes for these days?
                      Why does the rest of the country get first dibbs on half my income?

                        No clue but if you find out make sure to let me know.

                        Also would be willing to part with my first born

                            I have been waiting patiently since NEA first started hinting about this. I told myself I wouldn't buy another gun until this was released.... My LGS changed my mind into not buy any more RIFLES until this comes out. The S&W 686 and HK SFP9 I bought don't count.

                              Looking forward to the range reports.

                              In the end I have to admit to myself that I have no real use for one, other than to piss off Liberals.

                                Lots of use for a semi auto bad ass 308, moose, deer, rabbits, grouse, squirrels...... Its endless what you could use it for.
