This might be the stupidest gun I'd probably buy.....

Rather just buy a regular hammer without all the sharp edges
So if you live in a state where you have to have 'featureless' ARs, or can only have so many 'bad' things before your rifle becomes an 'assault weapon', this could be useful. Without a pistol grip, it may pass muster in places a normal AR pistol wouldn't.
Otherwise it's use would be no different than any other AR pistol. I'll give them credit for thinking outside the box. I know their belt-fed uppers have gotten pretty good reviews, so I think it's probably a quality product at least.

You know you own like 5 of these things.... Ha.....Hope you're well brotha!
Wasn't there a previous thread about that thing?
Ha this post reminded me when I was in Canada last year....Banff National Park, beautiful btw....anyways, I was having a gun conversation about what they're allowed to have.....AR's? Nope...Pistols? Nope...SBR's? Hell no...Suppressors? What in carnation? No way!!!....Short Barrel Shotguns? Hey, sure, why not!
Not gonna lie. I like it. And it comes in 300blk.
If you look at the list of states where they can't sell this to individuals it appears to be the same states that have the bans or restrictions you mention.
But the barrel is free floating....you know, for accuracy. So there's that. ..
If they did a 308 in the rifle form, it is kinda interesting. I like the concept.
Companies now are just trying to push the envelope with the ATF and get AR-15's in all 50 states.

Actually, your friend is kind of confused on the laws... not a surprise since they are kind of convoluted (although arguably better than say Cali).
They have 3 classes of firearms, Unrestricted, Restricted and Prohibited.
Things like machine guns, pistols with barrels under 4.5" (if I remember right) and any AK-47 or direct variant are all Prohibited. You can still own them, but you would have been grandfathered in with a Prohibited license and they would have to be disposed of after your death.
AR's and most center-fire semi-automatics and pistols are considered Restricted. That means they can only be used at a range or on private property. You need to get an 'Authorization To Transport' (ATT) approved by the Chief Firearms Officer's office if you take it anywhere else but an approved range.
However, since it's already 'Restricted', there is no legal limit on how short the barrel can be. That makes it equivalent to an 'SBR" here, but without the tax stamp and paperwork. Shotguns with short barrels fall into this category as well.
Finally there are Unrestricted' guns, which are 'everything else', from 22s to bolt-action hunting rifles. These can be used beyond the range, don't need ATTs and DO have limits on how short the barrels and OAL can be.
That's a real fast and loose overview, but should be fairly accurate from what I remember.
