    Bullpup kits?

    Has anyone noticed Bullpup kits for sale anywhere closer to Canada than the UK? I am kinda curious about this setup and accuracy.

    Sometimes this stuff just makes no sense whatsoever... really not at all. Thanks for the heads up on that.

    This is Canada, anything that could "look scary" is verboten. God help us if we call an idiot an idiot in public and look kinda angry when we say it (and no, I have no story to go with this).

    Anyone have a copy of that "Journalist's guide to assault rifles" cartoon? I think that would be relevant here...
    I'd say I care- but I'd probably be lying...

    I read it over a few times and I see they are not allowed to enter Canada. Its too bad cause the hatsan would end up being just over 27 '' which falls under non restricted. Oh well, who wants to talk about child maintenance and spousal support?LOL!

    "Bullpups" are not necessarily a prohibited device in Canada.

    They are only a prohibited device IF the stock can be removed and a round can still be discharged.

    Of course...anyone have a Remington 700? Take the stock off and you COULD still discharge a round...wouldn't reccomend it though.

    Nope...it doesn't make sense at all. This is what happens when idiots who are scared sh!tless of firearms are placed in charge of firearms policy.

    The problem with bull pup stocks is that they turn a long gun into a ****** that does not meet overall length requirements. There's a huge difference between a bull pup, and collapsible/removable stock/front p/g ******. I'm not all that sure I'd want to have a case-head separation occurring that close to my vitals, but that's just me....

    As for the Rem 700 being fired out of it's stock- yes, it can really be done, if it's an older short action- in a modified XP-100 stock. I dunno how many unlawful users are gonna go to all that botheration- when a hacksaw at the p/g is much easier...

    How come I can't say double-you eee eh pee oh en here?

    Certain "politically incorrect" words for Canada- i.e. the one you mention, are censored so that if some journalist type puts it in Google someday, we don't come up as a highlight for them. Other, more generic and not so "sensitive" words are fine; "firearm" "rifle" "handgun" etc. etc.- but that word in particular seems to be a real "hot button" for the anti's.

    Going to disagree with you Doc. On a 700...two screws and it's out of the stock...only "parts" that actually come loose from the reciever/barrel assembly at this time belong to the magazine. Trigger group and bolt COULD be intact at that point.
