When it was first announced we we hoping it was an unintended consequence of the 10K J limit. Guessing this might be already posted on the more political forums...

Nope, it's 10K Joules.

There are a whole bunch more calibers / rifles now sneakily prohibited because of this. Most are expensive African game rifles and the others are the extreme long range bolt guns.

Don't worry That .22 LR will soon be considered a long range bolt gun.

These people will never stop. They survive on banning. Look how Rathgen went to the tobacco ban lobby.

We have a Westley Richards 577 Nito coming in (@243K US$ !!) in a couple weeks. Just checked, still NR (for now) Guy waited four years and will be into it for just about exactly 400K CAN$ by the time its in his hands. I wonder what compensation the government would be will to do if they were to confiscate it if it goes to prohib? (hate calling it a buy back when they never owned them in the first place)

Well he may become a very good ally for the legal challenges, considering he seems to have some deep pockets.

I have a customer who owns a fine old English double in 8 gauge. It is now prohibited by the same OIC. It is evaluated at $35K, I wonder how a "buy-back" for something like that will work.

Yes, we just imported one for a gentleman earlier this year, he paid 25K US$....
Of course the cost of the compensation will be nothing compared to the cost to set up and staff 100's of collection and demolition centers! Imagine the cost to collect even a single firearm from, say, Pond inlet.
