Can you ask IWI if they're original customized ambidextrous lower for military / law enforcement of the Arad was physically different enough from a standard AR-15 lower that it cannot fit, and therefore a semi-auto version of the 2019 developed Arad may be submittable to the RCMP for an FRT review entry? This would of course differ from their verboten in Canada AR-15 lower compatible Arad version they are exporting to the States currently. https://www.edrmagazine.eu/iwi-announces-the-new-lightweight-multi-caliber-assault-rifle-a-highly-efficient-modular-battle-rifle-the-arad-5-56x45mm-and-300-blackout Thanks!

No way the Arad gets a nr frt when the crypto, derya mk12, atrs ms/mh were all banned as ar15 variants.

I wouldn't have expected the Carmel or Makasi to pass through the FRT entry, but they did. As long as the custom upper and lower cannot physically interact the AR-15 / M4 counterpart, there is a chance.
