Banned. I don't understand how people can't be bothered to google this stuff or email a company but will ask strangers on the internet?

Information literacy is as low as it's ever been, ironically while information has never been easier to access

My coworker: "I ask stupid questions on Reddit because it's too hard to figure out what google AI is lying about" 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Or hear me out, I did… saw the r15 and r10 were unrestricted but didn’t see anyone selling them so decided to double check

They’re prohibited, the r15 and R10 are AR15 and AR10 pattern rifles and are therefore prohibited.

R18 = prohibited
R15 and R10 = ??? Not sure if it exists in the wild

With this government, I don’t even know the legality of single shot 22LR rifles.

If they don’t appear in the firearms reference table, they aren’t officially prohibited yet, but based on the other entries, likely would be prohibited if submitted to the RCMP labs.

To be fair, there is literally a post about a legal 25 round 21lr semiauto everyday. That being said it's infuriating that there are 10 round semis banned while we are all shooting our Turks like it call of duty.

What would the RCMP do this? I know this is some silly joke that just gets parroted but it doesn't even make sense as a joke.
