Non-restricted vs standard capacity AR...

Non restricted. I think non res AR's would be the biggest step forward in undemonizing blacks rifles and guns in general. If the public saw them as more than just "assault rifles" we could more easily move to get rid of mag caps.
 
#2 non restricted. Changing magazines isn't more bother me than keeping my AR are "Range Toy" only.
All the hassles and restrictions are nonsense.
 
Count me as non restricted. I'd sell my XCR in a second and buy an AR so fast it would make your head spin. Plus, I'd love to shoot my handgun where and when I please. I actually don't really like going to the range.
 
A great majority of AR-15's exist with a 16.5" barrel, which would keep it Restricted even if the "variant" nonsense is all non-restricted. The lower receiver should be non-restricted. Pinning should be done at 10 rounds across the board, stop the silliness -- or just get rid of pinning. If pinning were rid of, then all high-cap mags that are pinned to 5 could become prohibited... and that's not cool. Based on the trust bestowed on us to legally own a pinned-to-5, million-round mag even, the trust that we won't remove that pin and we don't. It's not just the law that keep this community in check, but also the respect for that trust.

If they let you have them for a prescribed purpose.. (company) Meaning if you don't have a use you can't have it but if you do then tada! Then again at that point you can have anything so if you want a tank go ahead...


You could also go buy a 3d printer and print a lower... you can make one if you have the tools so in the end it all depends on how far someone is willing to go to get a firearm. Now you can make a firearm legally you just have to register it so whats the point of a registry when you could just make it.
 
I'm in the distinct minority here but I'd personally prefer full-cap magazines. In Nova Scotia there's no Crown land shooting without a hunting license, so I'm limited to range use only anyway. I certainly would be very happy with de-restriction, but for me it'd be a more of a moral victory rather than any change to how I shoot. Plus (in this lovely hypothetical world we're discussing) full cap AR magazines would also be usable in other rifles.
 
Back to no classification like the old days, it was either a handgun or a rifle.Deregulating mag capacity means nothing if most of the guns that are affected can generally only be used at a range any ways.
 
Man you guys really got it deep in the rear end and liked it to say mags pinned to 5 rounds are "no big deal".
 
I agree #5 is the best option.
What ever happened to the part where the government trusted the law abiding citizens and punished the criminal element?:bangHead:


Oh Oh I just remembered, the criminal element got elected to run the country.:confused:

This. As much as it is entertaining to read and think about this it is a false choice, there is no legitimate reason for either magazine limitations or type restrictions.

Snapshot
 
In an ideal world the classifications would be gone and granting me a license would recognize that I am a responsible citizen and can own what I want. But that being said a little bit of A and a little bit of B would be nice. 18.5" NR with limited magazine off the range and short barrels with as manufactured magazines on the range. This fight will be won through small gains not massive leaps.

Pretty much everybody in this thread actually.


The only reason we are even able to own AR's, let alone shoot them, is sheer luck.

Magazine capacity is a much, much, much bigger issue firearms-wide than rectricted vs non-restricted AR's.

I strongly disagree. I'd much rather take an ar15 into the bush with 10 or 15 rounds then go with an xcr with 30. I personally don't need anymore then 10 rounds. You're crazy if you'd rather have an extra 15 or 20 rounds and save yourself that 2 second reload then have an ar15 with you in the bush
 
I think that de-restricting ARs would change the firearm scene so much in Canada that more attention would be given to semi-autos and it would be easier to change the laws on mag capacities because every joe shmoe would have an AR pinned to 5... on the contrary, say we got rid of capacity restrictions first, it wouldn't really shed any light on how to de-restrict the AR platform and in my opinion give the antis some serious ammo (pardon the pun). Not that mag caps change ANYTHING with firearms in criminal cicumstances, but it will be harder to hold onto, and harder to move on from there.

I vote #2 De-restrict ARs!


... so this is happening next week right?
