    Feel free to explain that to the CFC because they forgot to consult me when the made their decision. And their decision regarding pump shotguns is in writing I believe on the frt discs. It went something like any pump shotgun with a factory barrel length less than 16" combined with an OAL of less than 26" (they said it in metric but I'm old) is considered a handgun and therefore restricted. Somebody had the exact section posted here a few years ago but it's since disappeared (or buried in a couple thousand threads). I would love it to be non rest as I have an 8 1/2 I plan on putting on a pistol grip on to play with on the action range. It doesn't matter to me if it's restricted, but it does make it harder to sell
    They say age brings wisdom, and in the same breath say there's no fool like an old fool.

    You are thinking of the dlask shortys. The cfc/RCMP claimed they were a handgun... Lol.

    In theory, these should be the same as a ranch hand but they are black and than makes a difference in the eyes of the RCMP. The age of the action design has nothing to do with it and even if it did, pump actions have been around for along time.

    Well, look like we won't see this shotgun anytime soon, information from another site sponsor is that firearms exports from Italy is stopped at this moment due to new exports regulations.

    Maybe TSE could confirm this.

    Will it be available in Canada in the near future ? in both restricted and NR configuration?

    TSE, will you import it ?

    We have a couple of hundred on order! The Fabarm Martial Pistol was met with a huge amount of interest at TSE booth at CANSEC. Beside the "Guarden Gnome" it was the most photographed item in our booth. It looked sweet with a breaching tool on the end! For Canada JR ordered them with regular and Proforces stocks to keep the overall length NR. It hold 4+1 shells. NATO testing at 50M with slugs brought in 2 1/2" groupings. The barrel was designed specifically to take slug.

    As far as exports from Italy go - we are confident when Fabarm is ready to ship this gun (Fall/13-Spring/14) there will be no problems.

    This is excellent news Tseheather, let hope that Jr also ordered a few restricted one with the pistol grip only.

    Does the barrel have screw-in chokes?

    So, if I understand this correctly -

    One configuration of this beauty is basically an 11" version of the Martial Proforces 14" ?

    Ohhhh .....
