Just curious what will happen if the gun confiscation goes ahead. There will be a pile of stripped down AR receivers handed in - minus trigger, bolt carrier, mag, mag release, sights, barrel, & stock. That is the only restricted (now prohibited) component.Quote:

Uppers are on the prohib list too now, not just the lower receiver.Quote:

They were never part of the registration but they are now considered prohibited devices.Quote:

You could buy a restricted stripped down lower and then build it from scratch (quite common - I have build several of them) or you can buy a complete firearm and strip the factory components such as bolt carrier, mag release, trigger group, stock, barrel, fore stock, & sights, and then one would buy and sell parts and upgrade the firearm as you go. So it will be quite conceivable that people will have a partially built firearm depending on what they were doing when the ban took effect.
Now I suggest you pi$$ off and crawl back under your rock. I am getting very tired of your exaggerations and assumptions.........
You can just go F yourself if you think I do not know what the hell I am talking about.Quote:

What seems to evade your brain is the section in the OIC, let me repeat with a quote.
"Other

"Other" is a section in the RCMP release, item 87 of Part 1 of the schedule specifies AR-15, AR-10 and other AR style firearms being banned.
Therefore, the Upper is now considered a prohibited device. If you are using an AR-15 upper on another firearm lower that is no a prohibited firearm you are still in possession of a prohibited device.
I suggest you pi$$ off and go read the thing again.
