Both the 9" and 12" versions are pistols in the USA, so I can't see how that is the deciding factor.

Are you able to fire slugs with these?
Ordered!
Is the NR Mares the 22lr? Because that would make a difference. Restricted usually means center-fire based of the checklist they have, so the shorter version in rimfire would have been deemed NR.

I'm sure if you called them with both NR & R FRT numbers they could in theory give a detailed summary of why they are classified as such. Unless it's in the FRT table on armalytics in the notes. But it's really a game of making sense of something that they don't have to make sense of.

I am aware of WHY they're marketed as pistols in the US. But the fact remains that ALL Mares Legs are sold as pistols in the USA, so the fact that the 9" ones are pistols in the USA thus pistols in Canada does not make sense because that reasoning should also apply to the 12" ones.
Long story short: The RCMP does whatever they want, and if you try to apply logic to it you'll just go in circles.
