Looks cute, I'm not sure I'd want to "assault" anything with it though.

It is my understanding that poly is going after anything magazine fed (tube fed as well). No matter if its a 10 shot 22 or a 3 shot 308. They want no guns but will suffice with single shot bolt guns and double barrel shot guns for hunting purposes.

Them wanting no gun is like dropping a needle in the ocean and expect to find it after an hour.

I have seen some people being very quick with break action, and also very fast with single shot. Then what will be the narrative by then?

There were even report of people train themselves several weeks prior to commit mass stabbing in Asia. So they can cause maximum damage. I guess they can't sell any knife unless it's a full butter knife then.

It's not like its going to happen over night, not in a few years, but over a generation or two. We are not geting hand guns back. Years from now when the last owner dies, that will be it. They will pursue the same path for rifles. We will see some caps on new ownership just like Australia just past. Existing owners will be grandfathered as a mass confiscation of multiples of millions of guns is impossible. So they will wait till we are dead just like the hand gun owners. And by then the types of rifles available for sport will be extremely restricted. I imagine a system where guns have to be kept at police stations or gun clubs like other countries do. There's a high probability that we will never see a conservative majority government ever again. They assuredly wont back track on laws passed. Even if they did provinces,municipalities, cities etc can put there own bans in place. The old world is over, mass control and compliance is the future for Canada, Britain, Europe etc. We've simply grown accustomed to too much freedom, they will reel that in for us.

Well, this is why I am glad I have a collection of SKS, and T81s, plus bunch of 223s on standby.

I spend $150k on firearms for the long game baby, lol.
