They’re common in the US, but since it’s illegal to carry for self defence here they’re not allowed (along with probably a dozen other specific restrictions on handguns)

These are deadass not “common” in USA, it’s a novelty gun that’s works better then zip gun, but is still ass. I would rather buy the folding glock

They aren't legal because the barrel length is too short. That's it.

He's not entirely wrong though, it is illegal to carry anything for the purpose of self defense in Canada.

Correct, but just because you can't carry a handgun for self-defense is not legally why they are banned.

(Though, that is likely the root of it, even if not the legal root. They could easily legalize all handguns, and they would still be illegal to carry)

Because he's factually incorrect?

Am I? It’s too short to be legal here, along with not being able to carry for SD… maybe they’re not as common in America and I’ve just seen them in too many videos.
