"The RCMP centre defines crime guns as firearms that were used or suspected to have been used in criminal offences, guns whose serial numbers have been obliterated or altered, firearms that were found but not reported lost or stolen, and replicas, toys, 3D-printed guns, pellet or air guns that have been used in criminal offences"

So when the police previously said 90+% of guns used in crime were smuggled that was a lie? Or is this the lie?

This is a lie. They’re saying firearms that can’t be traced, (serial number missing), are Canadian even without that firearm matching a description of a missing Canadian firearm. And also non firearms that are considered firearms when use for crime, (pellet, paintball, airsoft I assume), are also being claimed to be Canadian “firearms”.
