1 May 2020 Canadian firearms legislation changes

And unlike the banned firearms listed in the OIC, these new banned ones aren't published anywhere (or not anywhere the average person would even know to start looking) so you can become a criminal in possession of a prohibited item and not even know it.

Casual conversation with a Wheat Farmer of Sask., during a day on the job. I like the humour.

Probably a measure of half the population?

"a .44 has, like, 44 bullets, right? And a .38 has 38 bullets."

OMG!

Soooo, a .303 SMLE must very cumbersome to carry with all that ammo.

Like, you know, a Belt fed bolt action, right?

So in the spirit of all things MLU, would the feed tray have to be level with the belt to reduce the force required to strip the cartridge off and move the belt? I propose an experiment!

I'm in on this one!

Here is an example of the notorious 303 Lee Enfield Assault Weapon, so named because of the number of bullets it can fire. With 250 in the can and another 53 up the spout, it is capable of unleashing a withering volley of half-truths on Good Citizens, resulting in devastating fearmongering that can spread out of control on social media. "Evil Things" like this have no place in modern society, and it is well past time that they were consigned to the History Books, where they can never again be read about by school students.

But Good Citizens can sleep safely, for although this inflammatory weapon was not mentioned in the 1st May List, it can never fall into the hands of Ruthless Criminals, Deranged Drug Addicts or Miffed Ex-Employees because it was Swiftly-Dealt-With in the 1st April Declaration.
