Recurring Canadaguns Politics and Debate Thread

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, questions, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread. This thread recurs every 14 days.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun subreddit, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things.

This thread is not for general politics, there are plenty other subs that are meant for that. Off-topic threads may be removed, especially if they are leading to personal attacks, flame wars, etc.

To prevent the main sub being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about gun politics will be sent here.

We understand that politics is a touchy subject, and at times things can get heated. A reminder of the subreddit rules, when commenting, where subreddit users are expected to abide.

Keep this Canadian gun politics related and polite. Off-topic stuff, flame wars, negative generalizations against groups, personal attacks and gate-keeping will be removed. Please flag any comments to bring to the attention of mods otherwise exercise your upvoting and downvoting ability.

5 round limit on semi auto center fire non restricted firearm is lame and stupid. Get rid of it.

You missed the old days where people would stuff 15 rounds of 223 in a 50 Beowulf magazine.

RCMP: You can fit more cartridges in a magazine if it's designed for a different calibre than what you're loading into it.

Based bros: Okay, I'm gonna fill up a 5 round, 50 Beowuf Magazine with as many 223. Rounds as I can. (Fits 15).

RCMP: >:(. "Okay, now we're telling you that you'll have to pin 50 Beowulf magazines to 2 rounds, otherwise we'll consider them "dual-use" and charge you with possession of a prohibited device".
