None of the ww2 designs on that list would be original as the full auto and converted auto were caught earlier. They are mostly civilian semi auto copies.
Thanks. I bought the KC because it looked cool and impressive, beautiful shooter, never jammed. I realize by selling it the 12/5 will be gone but at 63 and all the stupid rules coming down, it's time. I am/was into mostly WW2 firearms.

You may be able to keep your 12.5 by buying a stripped fal receiver in case you change your mind later... Don't know if you read the list but there are tommy guns in that category (albeit commercial, post war production and semi only) which may keep your interest going.
In my opinion, you would be very unwise to allow your 12.5 grandfathered status to be gone by transferring your last in that class.
A 12.5 licence is somthing I'd pay 40k for if the govt had them for sale. But NO... the age based discrimination continues.
I am sorry this happened to you. I am concerned this is the future of all the current prohibitions and their reversals. 30 years of waiting to use lawfully acquired property.
I also would be reluctant to give up my 12.5 if I was fortunate enough to have such license
Find a cheapo FAL and buy that. Then sell off your more valuable KC.
THIS.
This is what I did many years ago. Paid $125 for a complete FAL L1A1. Really I was only interested in the cheapest thing available to keep me in the class. Turned out that cheapo L1A1 is a really nice rifle.

Will they do this with any American website? I got a bunch of stuff I wanted to get that won’t ship to Canada
Pretty much, so long as the websites are legit/above-board there shouldn't be a problem.
Oh the Memories, I purchased the identical rifle back in 1975 when I was a young Patricia in Victoria. I sold it around 1977/78 as the Victoria city police wouldn't give me a permit to transport it to the range. It was a great rifle but hard on brass, and 5.56/.233 brass wasn't as cheap then as it is now.

I wouldn't have thought an HK 91 was restricted back then? Maybe due to barrel length?
Brass that comes out of any of the HK roller delay rifles and SMGs is not worth picking up.
Not necessarily. I reloaded plenty of 9mm brass ejected from my MP-5 back in the day . It doesn't dent the case-walls and the flutes don't affect the reloading process. Rifle brass may be a different story, as my G3 always severely dented the case-wall during the ejection process.
I think the fluted 9mm brass requires a lot more sizing effort and the stuff is super dirty so must be cleaned.
If one is desperate then sure pick the stuff up but if one has a good supply of brass, the stuff thats been through an HK is maybe not worthwhile.

HK 93 not 91
HK 91 was non restricted IF the flash hider was permanently attached, thereby making the barrel long enough.
Years later they made a bunch of guns restricted by no longer counting the flash hider/barrel extension as part of the barrel length.
That all became moot when all that stuff got classed as prohibited (i.e 12x classess).
Oh my lord so many dream guns in one post. Amazing collection my friend !
