People are going to go absolutely nuts if the supreme court invalidates the OICs.

There are going to be a million Gunposts from people trying to sell off those now un-banned guns "Before the Libs ban them through Parliament", and the prices are going to be insane because regular online retailers won't have those models in stock for months to provide some kind of reasonable competition.

Oh, guns can get imported quick if needed... The reasons that's often not the case is Canada needed 18.6" barrels to be NR, which means special production runs. If AR's are back on the menu and restricted, we could get 16" ones very quickly.

I'm not sure what self abusive lunatic wants to go down the restricted lane anymore. The fact that ARs were restricted in the first place is absolute nonsense

If we somehow against all odds win the supreme court case, ARs would be restricted.

Having run ARs in 3 gun matches, a 14" AR is way better than a 18.6" one. Worth going restricted in that case.

The arguments have been a long shot at lower courts. The government is well prepared and motivated to fight. Firearms, especially "Assault Rifles" (I know, dumb term), are not popular among the general population and it's hard to imagine the court not taking that into consideration.

I agree with your take even though I wish for things to work out. My new goal is just saving my money now to buy property up north.
