The RCMP leaves out an important point on its web site. The restriction against barrels less than 470 mm only applies to those which are capable of firing center-fire ammunition in a semi-automatic manner.

Unfortunately, given time Canada’s gun laws will become like those in the UK and Australia. Liberals always opt for blanket restrictions whenever they come to a hard bend. At first I used to think it’s because they want to control things, but I later realized that it was also partially because they are lazy. Why lazy? Because when a shooting happens, it is easier to confiscate firearms from law abiding citizens than it is to (1) tackle the real issues that led to that shooting and/or (2) go after criminals. It is lazy because they know that (most) law abiding citizens will abide to the new regulations, and thus the evening news can show thousands of firearms being destroyed.

Unfortunately, criminals do not adhere to such edicts for one simple reason - they are NOT law abiding citizens. That’s why we call them criminals.

Liberals don’t understand that, they need to control people, and they are too lazy to tackle the real problems.

I gather it’s still possible to literally “saw off” part of the shotgun barrel ...

I’ve had friends who carried little stubby sawed-off shotguns around their necks at times of potential trouble, they are intimidating when welded by already intimidating men.
