    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    Thanks so much for all your feedback. It is my task to respond to emails daily and some days they stack up on me. We are a small company and we all wear multiple hats.
    Its true our email response time lags a bit during import time as we believe its priority to get everyone's order out as quickly as possible.
    It is not our intention to displease any customer so if we haven't responded in a timely manner to your request, please do not hesitate to email a second request.
