I've seen some posts from a firearms retailer in Alberta social media and website and a couple private sellers online selling UTAS 556/308 AR10/AR15 straight pulls.

The rifle from what I'm reading is essentially an AR10/AR15 without a gas port in the upper and proprietary sized pivot/takedown pins to make it incompatible with normal AR10/AR15 but is otherwise it's an AR10/AR15.

Does anyone have any more information on this rifle? I can't find much online and there's no public FRT, I would imagine there's a private one that has not been released yet as it would be needed for importing the rifle from Turkey. Seems odd RCMP would've allowed this to pass as NR.

I own one, they currently have no frt which he is trying to get. I did post it on here but people started hating so I deleted the post.

Does the gun have a gas tube? Is there anything different in the lower receiver or is it just a regular ar-15 without a gas tube?

If you can't take the hit, I would suggest selling this quick, in my estimation this is just going to get prohibited soon

It has no gas tube system and its not drilled for it also, far as a lower receiver I have no idea as I never had an ar before but honestly it probably is and I doubt it will get a frt but it looked cool so I bought it

You should post pictures of it disassembled, give us all a look at what it needs to bring it back to “100% functional”.
