Bye Bye semi automatic rifles

[greatwhite]

Most shotguns take more then 3 shells with only a wooden dowel preventing you from loading more.

GW I was thinking more about the thread on tube extensions that allow them to accept 8-10 shells.


Although they are already prohibited in Canada by the magazine capacity restrictions. (I believe)

trimmer,

Well partner you know I,am a one shot guy so any old bolt action would be fine by me, the only reason I ever bought a semi auto was because I was at a camp where we used hounds and a fast follow up shots might be needed. As the guys have said its all about the interpretation. In any event I am not at all worried.
Might even get me into cross bow hunting and a big extended season, I could have pretty well dropped a doe on opening day of bow season.

I do not agree that hunters and sports shooters sat back and watch it happen, this was an ELECTION issue in the last general election and JUSTIN put the proposition right on the ballot. Alberta and the western Provinces voted en mass to try and defeat this and LOST.

What makes you think on the political landscape that Canadians would vote you way. I can give you some reasons they will vote against you.

Fear of allowing folks like those in the so called freedom convoy getting easy access to guns.
Fear of mass shootings as they witness in the USA 600 this year, the blame going back to Republicans and their policy of backing the NRA.(think NS shootings)
Fear of Urban violence which occurs on a daily basis.

You might not know this but the recent elections won by the Democrats in the USA was because the Gen x and Millennium's being fed up with gun violence got out and voted for the Democrats, so there was no Red tide Republican wave. If Liberals in Canada can tap into that voting block in the next general election watch out.

I see you get your point of views via MSM

Gilroy, That's not what you said several years ago. If I recall you said something along the lines that most of your firearms were semi and you didn't believe they would ever be banned. Seems to me your just changing your tune to fit. So far everything I predicted is coming to a head. As I have said before by the time my son is 50 ALL Firearms will be banned and there will be none. Allan Rock once stated that the goal of the Liberals was to eventually ban 100% all Firearms.

So, I have been really trying to interpret this. My personal take on this is that 742/7400s are not prohibited because they were designed to accept a 4 shot magazine. There are no “legal” magazines that can be adapted to fit this platform. Some rifles, like the benelli are designed to accept LAR magazines (legal and a capacity of 10) to get around this. I believe there are others that accept glock mags which are also legal and have a 10 shot capacity. Again, this is how I read this…

For the guys worried about shotgun tube mags, have a closer read. The law speaks to box mags. This seems to be an attempt to restrict platforms that can charge higher capacity mags and be reloaded rapidly. Only John Wick can load a tube mag fast enough to be a concern.

[Gilroy]

GW.

NO GW your back to your Old Tricks about saying something that is not accurate.

So no MOST OF MY GUNS are not semi auto,s my main hunting rifle is. I did say that I did not believe semi autos would be banned as that means a total ban and we are not at that stage. So I have not changed my tune.

You have been predicting for at least 10 years that the sky was falling and we would lose our semi autos, to date that has not happened and EVERY GUN I HAVE HAD FOR THE PAST 40 years I STILL HAVE.

I believe there is NO POSSIBILITY that by the time your son is 50 years old all guns will be banned.

Allan Rock is long gone and policies change as do priorities.

I believe your right.
