Application / Regulation advice Are combo .22LR/.22WMR revolvers eligible for exempted handguns per the Olympic sports exemptions? (BC)

So I actually managed to get my first handgun exemption for sport shooting and picked up a Ruger MK4 (awesome!). But I was curious too about picking up a .22 revolver to compete as well. One that I found that seems suitable is the Taurus 992, which is a revolver that comes default with both a .22LR cylinder and a .22WMR cylinder. Are revolvers in .22 allowed as exempted .22 sports shooting firearms? Would there be a problem since it comes with a .22WMR cylinder as well? Cheers everyone!

Irunguns, it’s in their USA store and as long as you have an exemption letter for that firearm, they’ll import it for you

How much did the whole thing cost?

550-600$USD or so. A little expensive but I’m happy with my purchase. Plus irunguns handles the entire paperwork side so I’m not complaining

Honestly that's a pretty good price. I'm gonna ask for another exemption letter and pick one up soon then.

Thanks!
