Crusader Arms Templar

So the new ban lists pretty much every semi auto 223/556 except the Crusader Arms Crypto and Templar... it also states that any AR180 variant is prohibited, so it's safe to say that while I'm in possession of a firearm that is not specifically listed (for now) I still can't use it? The next election can't come quick enough.

Everyone keep saying it's not banned yet, but the ar180 ban could cover it. It's basically a grey area right now.

And I can just imagine a dumb cop thinking it's one banned and charging someone for it. And then it's of course an uphill legal battle to show it isn't.

I feel like for any of those that have one it's not worth the risk.

I can see the leftist media headlines already of 'recently banned firearms still being used by owners' and you know the liberals will love to run it.

It's absolute bullshit and sucks but seems like it isn't worth the risk.

Maybe I'm just jealous because those with a crusader aren't banned yet but my gun was.

Yeah I don't think I'd risk it, not just for me but like you said it could snowball and fuck everyone else over!

I'm furious about the whole thing, despite all the negatives online around the templar I've never had a problem. The only issue I had was at a competition one magazine did not like to feed for some reason 🤷‍♂️ so I marked it and threw back in the back and continued on with the day! I know it's not a lot but I've put just shy of 3500 round through it without any problems
