Hey, not my fault your side of the border has such inane rules. But don't worry, we have more than our share on this side too.
For those who are not familiar with the difference between the Canadian and US deactivated gun rules, here is a brief synopsis:
In the US, you cannot have the origional receiver on a deactivated Full Auto gun (unless the gun was registered before or during the 68 amnesty, in which case it can also be repaired) Generally, you will find solid receivers made out of aluminum with most of the other portions of the gun attached. Generally they are not even allowed to haxe a spring in the receiver to allow the simulation of cocking the gun.
Here in Canada, the receiver must be origional. A deactivated gun done to the US standard (the solid receiver) would qualify as a replica, and is illegal for import to Canada. Not only that, but a replica is a prohibited device, and must be locked up and transported as per the regulations for a restricted weapon. A dewat does not fall under any storeage or transportation regulations.
I could go on and on, but it would just drive us all nuts.
