I’m looking at getting into a new .22 semi auto rifle, specifically the Derya TM-22 but I’m worried about what will be banned or is on the list. Since it is an “AR” look-a-like rifle.. bit of a newbie, just looking for some more input on the situation in Canada with rimfire semi autos. Thanks

The 10/22 is a super easy recommendation to make. Incredible customization, super reliable, and can still be had for a decent price. Because of its ubiquity as well, I expect any ban in the future that involves the 10/22 will have a lot of resistance, similar to the SKS.

I appreciate the input, more so looking for a tactical looking .22 like the TM22 I mentioned

IMO, a great option is the GSG-16 with the short barrel. I see it all the time and it looks awesome

It’s all about ammo. Just get high muzzle energy 22lr and it should cycle fine
