Assault Weapon ban for Canada

[Dench]

Seems like Canada is intent on coming for their guns.

Confiscation

Based on how they treated the truckers protest, Canadians would be stupid to give them up.

Trudeau is truly a Marxist...he needs to go.

Good. Given how much the average pussy Canada is post Trucker extravaganza I give zero shits. These people eat directly out of Trudeaus a**h***.

One thing I never do is remove people from social media when they post something I don't like. I haven't done it for as long as I can remember. Worst case I'll just unfollow. I had a distant Canadian family member sing the praises of the Ottawa police when they were going full retard on random people walking down the street who weren't even associated with the rallies. He was the 1st person in memory I just simply removed. I felt dirty having that association.

They will freeze bank accounts until weapons are taken. No car reg etc....Government is wonderful, and we pick it.
Like the people on here who are for 2A . but vote for dipshits like biden.

Yawn...And you thought MA was bad....already have bans in place. Max capacity on many rifles are 5 rounds.

Maximum permitted magazine capacity | Royal Canadian Mounted Police

Any magazine that exceeds the maximum permitted capacity as described in the Regulations Prescribing Certain Firearms and other Weapons, Components and Parts of Weapons, Accessories, Cartridge Magazines, Ammunition and Projectiles as Prohibited or Restricted, is a prohibited device.


Businesses can possess prohibited devices, if appropriately licensed. Individuals may not possess prohibited devices.


As a general rule, the maximum magazine capacity is:

• 5 cartridges for most magazines designed for a semi-automatic, centre-fire long gun
• 10 cartridges for most handgun magazines

Possession of a large capacity magazine that has been permanently altered so that it cannot hold more than the number of cartridges allowed by law, is legal in Canada. The Criminal Code Regulations describe acceptable ways to alter a magazine. It is illegal to import unaltered large capacity magazines.


With some exceptions, there is no limit to the magazine capacity for:

• semi-automatic, rim-fire long guns
• other long guns that are not semi-automatics

The examples below will help explain the maximum allowable capacity of cartridge magazines designed or manufactured for use in more than one kind of firearm.


Note: The maximum allowable capacity of a magazine does not depend on the classification of the firearm, nor does it influence the classification of the firearm. The maximum permitted capacity of a magazine is determined by:

• the physical characteristics of the firearm for which it is designed or manufactured
• the type of ammunition for which it is designed

Magazines designed or manufactured for both rim-fire calibre rifles and handguns​

• Magazines designed to contain rim-fire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a rifle have no regulated capacity.
• Magazines designed to contain rim-fire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a semi-automatic handgun are limited to 10 cartridges.

Magazines designed or manufactured for use in both rifles and semi-automatic handguns are subject to the handgun limit of 10 cartridges.

Example 1​

Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 rifle and 15-22P pistol chambered for 22LR rim-fire calibre:

• the 10 round magazine is unregulated
• the 25 round magazine is a prohibited device

Example 2​

The Ruger BX- 25 magazine, chambered for 22 LR rim-fire calibre, is designed and manufactured for use in the:

• Ruger SR22 rifle
• 10/22 family of rifles/carbines
• 22 Charger handgun

This magazine is a prohibited device unless modified so its capacity is 10 cartridges or less.

Magazines designed or manufactured for both centre-fire calibre semi-automatic rifles and other (non-semi-automatic) rifles​

• Magazines designed to contain centre-fire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a semi-automatic rifle are limited to five cartridges.
• Magazines designed to contain centre-fire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a rifle other than a semi-automatic or automatic rifle do not have a regulated capacity.

Magazines that are designed or manufactured for use in both semi-automatic rifles and other (non-semi-automatic) rifles are subject to the semi-automatic rifle limit of five cartridges.

Example​

Remington model 7615 pump action rifle chambered for 223 Remington centre-fire calibre:

• the 10 round magazine is prohibited
• the five round magazine is unregulated

Magazines designed for one firearm but used in a different firearm​

The maximum permitted capacity of a magazine is determined by the kind of firearm it is designed or manufactured for use in and not the kind of firearm it might actually be used in. This means the maximum permitted capacity remains the same regardless of which firearm it might be used in.

Example 1​

The Marlin model 45 (Camp Carbine) rifle chambered for 45 Auto centre-fire calibre uses magazines designed and manufactured for the Colt 1911 handgun. Therefore the seven round and eight round capacities are permitted.

Example 2​

The Ruger PC Carbine chambered for 9mm Luger centre-fire cartridges uses magazines designed and manufactured for Glock and Ruger SR-series handguns. Therefore the ten round capacities are permitted.

Magazines for semi-automatic handguns which contain more than 10 rounds of a different calibre​

Magazines designed to contain centre-fire cartridges and designed or manufactured for use in a semi-automatic handgun are limited to 10 cartridges. The capacity is measured by the kind of cartridge the magazine was designed to contain. In some cases, the magazine will be capable of containing more than 10 rounds of a different calibre. However, this does not determine the maximum permitted capacity.

Example​

Heckler and Koch P7 pistol chambered for 9mm Luger centre-fire calibre:

• The magazine designed for the 40 S&W centre-fire calibre variant of the pistol will hold 13 cartridges of 9mm Luger centre-fire calibre and function in the 9mm Luger centre-fire calibre P7 pistol
• This is allowed as the maximum permitted capacity of the 40 S&W centre-fire calibre magazine is measured by the number of 40 S&W centre-fire calibre cartridges it is capable of holding (10 in the case of the HK P7 pistol magazine)

So I take it you arent a fan of taking a liberal to the range and let them shoot your ammo in the hope that one day the liberal will be a liberal voting gun owner ?

Virtue signaling NES'ers that helped arm their enemy has to be in the double figures by now lol

 

[cathouse01]

Didn't NY run into that problem when they tried to squeeze down the 'assault weapon capacity' from 10 to 7 and Garands suddenly were too high-cap?

Actually the SAFE Act had a carveout for any gun that was manufactured 50 years before January 15, 2013 (i.e. before 1/15/1963) which would cover M1 Garands if their magazine capacity were over 7 rounds. However, an M1 is 7+1, the enbloc holds 8 rounds but the magazine only holds 7. The first round is always stripped off and loaded into the chamber. The SAFE Act does allow 7+1.

The stupid 7 round limit is still on the books, even though it was struck down in late 2015 when the 2nd Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals upheld a lower-court ruling, issued in late 2013 by Chief U.S. District Judge William M. Skretny in Erie County, that struck down the SAFE Act component that had made it illegal for individuals to load more than seven rounds of ammunition into a magazine capable of holding 10 rounds. Since the law has not been amended to remove the 7 round limit any person putting more than seven rounds of ammunition into a magazine could be arrested. The only time you can legally have more than 7 rounds in your magazine (plus one in the chamber) is at home, at an incorporated firing range or participating in a competition recognized by the National Rifle Association or International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association, in which case the limit is ten rounds.

Judge Skretny’s ruling in part said that "New York State failed to produce evidence that the provision [only allowing 7 rounds in a 10 round magazine] would stop criminals from simply adding three more rounds to get the magazine to its full, 10-bullet potential. It is thus entirely untethered from the state rationale of reducing the number of assault weapons and large-capacity magazines in circulation.”

NY State Troopers have been giving a directive to not enforce the 7 round limit, but that doesn’t mean any other LEO in NY state can’t arrest you for it and nothing would prevent a District Attorney from prosecuting you for it, even though a judge would LIKELY through the case out.

Yup, can MA or any other state produce evidence that the provision limiting various features on a SEMIautomatic would stop criminals from simply not following that at all? Like the dude who's gonna go commit an armed robbery of a bank or murder somebody is gonna care if that AR has a non-flash hider pinned and welded and non adjustable stock.

"Example this"..."Example that"! Maybe, just maybe, they should start making examples of murderers and drug dealers by executing them rather than stomping on the rights of law-abiding gun owners!

Yes, those people are scum too !

 

[Devils Paintbrush]

The long term consequences of what Canada is trying to do is chilling.

Eventually when that excessive boldness makes its way to the US (some might say it is already here) everyone will have to decide where their line in the sand really is.

It is hard to resist and remain free, when your bank funds are frozen, you have a vaccine ID/Passport, firearms are confiscated and you have no job due to pressure from people that think you don't deserve what you have, or disagree with what you do.

 

[The5thDentist]

So the linked article is almost 2 years old. Did they enact the ban?

 

[MAGA99]

So in Canada you can get around the 10 round handgun mag limit BS by carrying a 40 version magazine and squeezing a few extra 9mm rounds in there!!! WOW, 40 is f***ing legend!!

 

[Devils Paintbrush]

So the linked article is almost 2 years old. Did they enact the ban?

They are starting to "talk" about a buyback on the ones that the government has banned.

Can't buyback something that the government hasn't bought in the first place...the big lie. The real term is confiscation.

confiscation

Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino said Wednesday that a mandatory buyback program will be launched as soon as this spring for the upwards of 1,500 kinds of firearms banned by the government in 2020.
The controversial order-in-council announcing the ban of what Ottawa called “assault-style” weapons was accompanied by a two-year amnesty for owners, in part to allow for a buyback program to be set up.
That amnesty was set to expire next month. With no buyback program yet in place, the government will now extend the amnesty to October 2023.
“We’re not saying it’s going to take 18 months at all to launch this (buyback) program,” Mendicino said Wednesday at an event in Markham to announce funding to combat gang violence.
“We hope to have a launch much faster than that … certainly we hope this spring, if not as quickly as possible.”
The original buyback program was voluntary, but in the 2021 election the Liberals promised to make it mandatory as part of a suite of promises to get tougher on gun crime.
