Are you able to fire slugs with these?
That still US law, has to do with barrel length. They want it to be US pistol class for sub 16" barrels (18" for shotgun) or its an NFA item there.
Yes, they have a fixed cylinder choke.

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.
Nope there's a bunch of center fire on there.
They're all NR aside from the ones with Pistol marked on the frame. With the odd one out being pistol marked on the barrel also being NR.
So to further analyze a firearm can be a pistol if its marked pistol on the receiver.

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.

9.8 barrels. Damm it! Something else to lust after . Damm covid has got me short this year way less bounty in the coffers to play with.
Never ride faster than your Angel can fly !
If it is marketed as a pistol by manufacturer, then RCMP will in most cases consider it designed and intended to be a handgun (ie aimed and fired with one hand). Also, can anyone actually use the stock on a mare's leg? It's like 4"
