Whats THE Ruger No.1 You Just Gotta Have?

Other guns that are banned in chamberings over 10 k joules include: Westley Richards single shots, purdey doubles and the heym 88b

I’m not enthusiastic about any ban; but the way it’s written suggests that the models are banned IF they go over a certain bore diameter or 10 k joules. Meaning our no 1 are likely safe for now

The question remains; what Ruger no1 exceeds that? Did some masochist register a 460 wby rechamberwd 458 no 1 back in the day? And what moron wrote this list?

Nope, the way it's written says that the Ruger No 1 is capable, therefore banned. 460 Weatherby also got ALL Weatherby Mark 1, 2 and 5 actions banned, Safari calibres also got all Purdey double rifles banned and CZ 550's. Also banned, all Mauser 'sporters' and strangely enough the 1908 Brazilian Mauser, which in it's only legitimate calibre is a pipsqueak. Welcome to Canadian gun control. Incidentally, all Parker shotguns are banned too, haven't been made since the Dark Ages, but banned anyway.
 
Any firearm capable of delivering 10,000 it says. Then it lists specific models. I wonder if there is any chance that only the specific models in a cartridge that exceed that threshold are affected, or whether it is in fact all firearms of that model, regardless of chambering?

Which way do you think the Liberal interpretation will go???
 
you know that the Ruger #1 is or will be shortly a Prohibited firearm... They put in the Legislation just Ruger #1... So it will apply to all calibers of the Ruger #1 not just the .460....F'n Sad!!!
 
Lets ban Liberals once and for all, and any variants of liberals as well, ndp, bloc, etc. Any variant capable of spewing magnum bs out of its cranium.
 
Don t you feel safer all ready they are taking a wicked single shot rifle out of the hands of criminals.It is probably their favourite weapon for drive bys .Though they would have to drive by quite a few times to spray an area with bullets

Yes I can just imagine a gang banger doing this with just a vice and a couple of files ,wouldn’t t even have to worry about head spacing etc.The first question they should ask especially in a Ruger no 1 why would they actually do it if not being done for hunting purposes also if they were doing it illegally without a license it would pain to source ammo for it.And after all that you end up with a jury rigged single shot rifle.
We are truly living in a sad country.

That’s a well written explanation. About what I thought as per the reasoning for the classification but in this section of the ban it’s the cartridges that produce over 10,000 joules, not the firearms. Not that it matters to the clowns ruining our country and steeling from its citizens.

They're banning the entire platform - ie the action, that's why they listed the Brazilian Mauser. The 1908 Brazilian Mauser was only made in 7mm Mauser (3.5 Kj Proof), but the gun is on the list because of the court opinion linked above. If you can replace the barrel and bolt and make the action "capable" of firing a round whose Proof Load is over 10Kj it's prohibited. So 375 H&H is over, as is 338 Lap, they haven't enforced that yet, but that may change. The action is the gun - we've all heard it, now we know what it truly means, if you can re-barrel the action to over 10Kj - again, that's Proof load, it's prohib.
 
Let's be honest here. Pretty much any centerfire receiver that can physically accommodate a 10k+J cartridge barrel is open for banning. The pending law does not say capable of SAFELY firing. This "law" is way more far reaching than any of us could fathom. The devil is in the details with these bastards. You can be sure the lab rats are loading 45-70 with pistol powder to get those energy numbers up where they want them.

We saw that with the ATRS "not an AR" they used baling wire to attach a "non-AR" upper to an AR lower and got it to fire - once - and there it was "close enough" that's an AR. You're completely correct, 45-70 loaded way above pressure, such that it destroys the gun, but if it fires once.....
