Application / Regulation advice Backland Hunter FRT

Can anyone confirm with knowledge if a crusader arms backland hunter has been submitted for a FRT? Maybe perhaps a resticted model, or I remember with the crypto that marster or some other company had submitted one.

Just curious, please no comments about don’t need frt blah blah. I won’t to know if anyone knows of one being submitted or not.

What difference does it make? If it got submitted for an FRT, it’ll inevitably get banned as an AR variant. If it didn’t get submitted for an FRT, it’ll get banned by OIC when the Liberals do the next round of bans; which, considering they’re about to get their majority government, probably isn’t too far away.

I’d like to wait for how they classify it, they might surprise us. Then we just wait for another oic in the future IF it happens

If the Stirling Arms R9 MK1 can be banned as an AR-180B variant despite sharing nothing in common with that design, the Backland Hunter doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell.

If they ban the backland hunter wouldn’t they need to ban the m4 and all variants? As the backland hunter uses the m4 shot gun design?

It doesn’t have to make any sense - there is no logic or rationality behind the FRT system.
