Does this mean what I think it does? New FRT for the FGC9, a 3d printed 9mm PCC.

If what you think is "I can print one", it probably does not mean what you think it does.

First-off C-21 made the files for the fgc9 prohibited by themselves. Second, the (new) position of the RCMP is that a PAL does not allow you to manufacture a firearm, not even for personal use.

So if you have a business firearm licence that allow you to manufacture restricted firearm, you could print a fgc9, but in any other case, you cannot! And just having or accessing the file required to print one would be a criminal offence.

True North Arms 3D prints a bunch of firearms accessories and parts so they might be able to bring this to market

The whole point of this is to print it yourself.

Which with the current RCMP opinion would be illegal if you are not a licensed firearm manufacturer

(it's fucked up that RCMP opinions have the force of laws, but it does until a court said it doesn't)

The RCMP says it is illegal to manufacture ANY firearm (except 84 sub 3) if you don't have the proper business license

For which market they were design has nothing to do with it
