Feets / Collection / My build Well, here we go again

Some of you might recognize these boomsticks from previous posts over the last 2 years. Unfortunately my previous account was banned as someone thought I was shortening firearms illegally (appealed decision). In the meantime, I’d like to once again offer the legalese.

Firearms CAN legally be shortened in Canada. You cannot cut the barrel(s) below 18” on a manual action, or 18.5” on a semi auto (you can cut a semi auto between 18”-18.4”, but then you have to register it as restricted). The overall length, regardless of action, cannot be cut below 26”.

Please see all tape measure measurements to confirm these firearms are completely legal.

Mods are lame for banning you over something legal.

Super lame. Wasn’t even the Canada guns mods though, it was reddit itself. Banned the whole account. So now, even though I included the legalities before, I’ll be over emphasizing the legality on any posts going forward
