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.

u/Cre_AK47 Name Prohibited by OIC Aug 03 '26
How come there is not ONE single Canadian manufacturer that will make a proprietary "AK" receivers? I get ARs have been around in Canada longer since they NARROWLY escaped prohibition in 1995, so the AR market was able to grow for 25 years before becoming prohib in 2020, but still, AKs are still a VERY popular rifle all around the world and there is a market for 7.62 x 39 rifles if the SKS and Type 81 (and previous VZ rifles) were any indication of that.
Why doesn't Crusader (Junk) Arms move ahead with creating a proprietary AK receivers/rifles? Can self-certify that it's NR until Poly tells the CFP to prohibit via FRT, but I mean, that means we can have 6-12 months of getting AKs in the market just like CA did with the Crypto, then after prohibition, double down and make a modified AK pattern rifle that's like the Backland Hunter (malicious compliance)...
