The one at the top looks close to an ISSC MK22 22lr semi auto which I believe is either banned or prohibited now. Its butchered but it looks like thats what it is from what im seeing. The rest however look like pellet/bb guns.
RCMP Definition: The RCMP defines a "crime gun" as any firearm used or suspected to have been used in a criminal offence, those with obliterated or altered serial numbers, guns not reported lost or stolen, and replicas, toys, 3D-printed guns, or air guns used in offences.
"Used in offenses" also includes things like this where they were seized during an investigation
To top that the injury from firearms stats include airsoft, paintball and pellet/bb... kids out playing in a field paintballing and lil Johnny sob gets hurt, his mom takes him to the hospital for say a fall. Boom another tick for firearms related injury stats.
I’ve actually been charged for having a pellet gun in my house when it got raided. They called it a “replica firearm” even though it was clearly not real, nor was there any reason to believe that was its intended purpose. Not sure if the picture I attached is the exact same one but close enough. Luckily my charges were dropped.
Damn! They searched my apartment and found 3 real firearms that were illegal and I didn’t get charged or nothing! I ended up getting them back when I pal came in
You think that's bad the UK police have been known more than once to show photos of knifes they have taken off of the streets and had spoons mixed in with them.
Well yeah, that’s a fully semi automatic assault style flour mill. A weapon of mass production. Only single shot manually operated flour mills are allowed.
I'd say they're larping a bit. No firearms there, gabapentin is the same stuff the vet perscribed my old lab for pain. The white stuff could be anything but reminds me of the probiotic I gave said dog also given by said vet. At thia rate the small bottle is probably combantrin for bum worms.
I recently started taking it for sleep issues, and the first time i took it (on a pretty low dose) felt super zen and relaxed, similar to weed. I could imagine it would give a pretty euphoric high at a larger dose
I’m fairly certain that if you carved a piece of wood to look like a gun, painted it black and used it in a crime, it would be posted and recorded as a “crime gun”
Best part about Canadian crime stats, even though these are all airsoft or pellet guns they will be counted as firearms siezed in crimes. Last time I checked stats for firearm crime the break down included injuries and fatalities resulting from bb guns

Doesn't require an injury, just has to resemble a gun and be seized by police
None of those are "real" firearms...and there's no crack in the photo either. The capsules are probably supplements and the bags of "powder" are probably flour mixed with laxative lol. Air-softs and pellet guns can still be dangerous though and if they were used to commit robberies, glad they got em. I'll bet whoever these belonged to had a pit-bull they didn't take good care of and if anyone called their bluff, they wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.
Really impossible to tell for sure without a closer look, but I see at least 2 pellet guns... I dont think any of them seem 100% legit to me. I have no idea what that top one is.
As others have said, these are all pellet and BB guns, not actual firearms. However, they'll be counted as such for firearms crime statistics because of how charges work in these parts.
Crazy thing is, if they bought these air-soft/pellet/BB guns legally at Canadian Tire and used them in a robbery, the government would site them as "legal firearms used in a crime". Another thing many don't know is, if a farmer has a shotgun, or small cal varmint firearm and they lose their ability to provide for their family due to government mismanagement....and they take their life.....that goes down as a death involving a legally purchased firearm. These make up a great percentage of the insanely small number of deaths caused by/involving legal firearms. So gross

There are no firearms in this photo. They are all run of the mill Can Tire pellet/bb guns.
