I have seen a few things in my news feeds about the proposed value of an AR 15 type rifle being bought by the Gov't.
I can't seem to locate an entire list however.
Does anyone have further information?

The AR15 buy back price seemed to have been released. The fact that it uses a well known gaming term 1337 ( LEET)....is either a huge coincidence, or the gamers / hackers are having a bit of fun.
Either way, for some, it seems that the figure is fairly low.
.99cents per pound... lol
Here's the proposed compensation amount for the 11 categories of prohibited firearms:
AR Platform firearms such as the M16, AR-10 and AR-15 rifles, and the M4 carbine: $1,337
Beretta Cx4 Storm: $1,317
CZ Scorpion EVO 3 carbine and CZ Scorpion EVO 3 pistol: $1,291
M14 Rifle: $2,612
Robinson Armament XCR rifle: $2,735
Ruger Mini-14 rifle: $1,407
SG-550 rifle and SG-551 carbine: $6,209
SIG Sauer MCX, MPX forearms such as the SIG Sauer SIG MPX carbine, and the SIG Sauer SIG MPX pistol: $2,369
Vz58 rifle: $1,139

And the RCMP says the banning and buy back is a waste of money and will do nothing to stop criminals. The money would be better spent to stop criminals. But for Trudeau this is not about Crime it is about banning firearms. Alan Rock once said he wanted to ban all guns and it would be done over time. Death by a thousand cuts.
Hopefully very few turn theirs in.
I'd turn in.
Buy another. Heck if I'm in a shop could leave with 2.

I have asked this question to some antis and they refuse to answer the question.
Maybe I should get a custom military for my Lee Enfield I can probably shoot through mountains.

$1,407 for a Mini-14? My brother-in-law is going to be ecstatic. Me not so much because I sold it to him years ago. LOL. I thought it was a complete POS as a rifle and still do but it looks like it was not a bad financial investment.Quote:

Turning them you admit defeat to the Trudeau government and the more that get turned in, encourages him to ban even more . If the majority refuses it means he has to rethink his next move.

It doesn't even have to be operable as a firearm, it just has to be scary or offend someone. And watch out if your .22 holds 10 high powered rim fire projectiles, those puppies will blow through over 2 inches of corragated cardboard.
As the old song goes.......... Its only just begun............
John
the Government of Canada has outlined its new mandatory buyback program for Canadian firearm owners and is looking for feedback on the pricing scale of the new gun law.
Per a recent release by Public Safety Canada, the feds have banned more than 1,500 types of assault-style guns since 2020 and are launching the buyback program to get "assault-style firearms" out of Canadian communities.
The way the buyback program would work is simple. In exchange for the banned firearms, the feds will pay owners a market price, so that the weapon is permanently removed from Canadian households.
]According to the government, owners of the banned firearms must either participate in the buyback program, have their gun "rendered inoperable" at the government's expense or have it "otherwise lawfully disposed."
And while none of the proposed prices are finalized, gun owners could get up to $6,209 in return for giving up their firearms.
Along with a pay scale and explanation of how the program works, the feds are asking Canadians to fill out a survey to determine if they think the prices for the banned weapons are fair and accurately reflect market rates.
The lowest price Ottawa is proposing for a buyback is $1,139 for any Vz58 rifles.
]The second lowest proposed buy-back price is $1,337 for AR platform guns, which include the AR-15, M16 and AR-10.
From there, prices go up, with M14 rifles going for $2,612 and Robinson Armament firearms for $2,735.
Guns that have a bore diameter — diameter of the gun's barrel — of more than 20mm could be bought for $2,684 and those with a muzzle energy of more than 10,000 Joules could be bought for $2,819.
The highest proposed buyback price — $6,209 — is for both the SG-550 rifle and SG-551 carbine.
The figures also apply to any modifications or variants of the specific firearms.
The rates were chosen by analyzing manufacturer and retailer prices, foreign retailer prices, pricing guidebooks and auction listings, with the manufacturer and Canadian retail prices getting priority.
This update on the buyback program comes after legislation was proposed earlier this year by the Liberal government that would put a freeze on handgun purchases, as well as a limit on how many bullets a "long gun" can carry.
The feds have also considered a law prohibiting anyone with a criminal history of domestic violence or criminal harassment — stalking — from buying a firearm in Canada.
i would say something but i am not allowed to swear on the site
By no means i have clue about the real market values of them guns-and by no means i endorse these steps-because for sure ,this will not limit any criminal from carrying out any unlawful act with any kind of gun : yet (i do not know prices)it seems reasonably high prices are set ?!Quote:

Last time I checked the government of Canada isn't in the business of selling guns.
So if some-one is forced to sell items that belong to them isn't it really an all out confiscation of goods?
We need an election like yesterday!!!
AGREED!!!!!Quote:

Some people who own rifles in .50BMG are in possession of firearms that far exceeded the $3K mark when purchased. On the face of it, it won't survive that challenge, as with all "appropriation" of private property, it has to be done at fair market value. Not an arbitrary number pulled out of a hat.
To Badenoch's point....mass refusal to comply may be just fine for some....do so at your own peril. ( I'd also keep from advertising same on forums and social media).
Another Liberal ploy attempting to do what appears to be something, when it will actually end as achieving nothing. Plus it serve to ensure the well being of the cross border health of the illegal firearm trade. They are attempting the buy back with law abiding citizens, I can't imagine many criminal casting in on the scheme, unless they can pick up guns on the other side of the border cheaply so they can sell them to the Canadian government and make a profit. Are there to be any checks to ensure this isn't going to happen? I could see such an operation, using a number of straw sellers.Quote:

Liberals and their supporters have made it their mission to define ALL GUN OWNERS as evil and as criminals.
X2. It's a total shame the path this country is going down. Poor Canada. As far as guns being scary not a chance! Only the anal orifice standing behind it is what one should be concerned about. With the laws in this country it shouldn't be a issue but instead of dealing with the obvious problems the Liberals prefer to sweep legal and law abiding owners into the same piles as the excrement that it creating the problems as it requires less work which we all know work is a foreign word to a liberal.Quote:
