    That's not true.

    Once a handgun, always a handgun.

    This is a strange universe our gun laws.
    Example Wichita and Remington bolt action handguns can not be action cannabalized for a rifle with the expectation of convertion non restricted status dispite full stock and full length rifle barrel.

    But shotguns example Ithaca Stakeout with a mere barrel change and/or full length stock versus it's pistol grip apparently conversion to non restricted from restricted is supposedly quite possible.

    A fly in the ointment is H&R M4 survival rifle. Once upon a time just pinning the sliding butt stock in longest format and with verification now can become non restricted.
    Apparently this is impossible right now with the CFC.

    I don't know where the Marlin Camp Carbines follow, but is suspect one can no longer get a longer barrel fitted by gunsmith and try to attempt to convert it non restricted status.

    My oh my....our laws....
    Canadian government runs on trans, gays and French speaking women. Let them fight the next war over there.
    Myself i will crack a beer and merely watch.

    In this case (the Mossberg restricted shotgun) it will be registered as a restricted shotgun, not a handgun.

    AOW does not mean handgun, it’s a shotgun and it’s non Restricted under the law, however the RCMP doesn’t only enforce laws, they enforce opinions

    First, The term ''AOW'' has no legal meaning in Canada. it's a US thing.

    Second , a shotgun can be restricted or not restricted, depending on the OAL length.

    That's how I read it too. What would make it restricted?

    https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/....html#h-117002

    restricted firearm means

    (a) a handgun that is not a prohibited firearm,

    (b) a firearm that

    (i) is not a prohibited firearm,

    (ii) has a barrel less than 470 mm in length, and

    (iii) is capable of discharging centre-fire ammunition in a semi-automatic manner,

    (c) a firearm that is designed or adapted to be fired when reduced to a length of less than 660 mm by folding, telescoping or otherwise, or

    (d) a firearm of any other kind that is prescribed to be a restricted firearm; (arme à feu à autorisation restreinte)


    Note the "and" in section b(ii)...has to be less than 470mm AND semi-auto.

    Could it be verified with a stock added? Making it non restricted?
