Makasi (FAL-AR hybrid) approved by the RCMP as NON-RESTRICTED

[u/Acceptable_Visit_115]

According to CGN it was granted a NR FRT #198428 very recently. Any BFL/verifiers here care to check?

Edit: Multiple BFLs have verified it to be true NR, and the importer/distributor is Gravel Agency

From the manufacturer's website:

The Makasi marries the functional aesthetic of the FAL with the familiar handling of AR-style controls. It features a short stroke gas piston system and bufferless recoil system and operates with a non-reciprocating side charging handle. The Para-style stock is also side-folding and is supported with a robust two-screw mounting system that allows for firing in both the folded and deployed positions.

There’s still no useable registry, who cares

It's disjointed, but it's usable: not only can they demand a gun shop turn over their records at any time, but when a gun shop goes bust, those records go to the government. Anyone who bought a gun since May 18 2022 from a gun shop who has since gone bust (ATRS is the latest victim, closed May 5th), those records have already been handed over to the government as part of the closure process, and they will be entered into a database, if they haven't already.
