This model is a Classic Green with the ‘sniper’ stock, trigger and grip assembly, barrel and gas block installed. Until recently, they were considered Non-Restricted based on barrel length, meaning that with a 18.5"+ barrel it is legal to own with a PAL and can be shot wherever it is legal to discharge firearms. With the implementation of C71 legislation, these will move to a prohibited class (12.9), and owners will be grandfathered once the legislation is brought into force. It has not yet occurred at the time this video was filmed and published. Currently, with the NR length barrel it is still being treated as "non restricted" and requires a PAL to possess. The Hk G28 bonus gun is considered an AR variant and therefore classed as a restricted firearm regardless of barrel length, and requires a RPAL to possess. #armandgun #sg550sniper #gunreview
