Yes
Ya I'd say your correct if it wasn't for the reintroduction of the firearms committee. Marco Mendicino the public safety minister, has all ready stated that they would have that committee make a list of anything they feel should be banned, and then the liberals would use an order in council like in 2020 and 2022 to ban them. The entire reason they even specified only future firearms, was to get people to not write letters, and to not protest the way they did with the G4 and G46 amendments. While the new amendment will essentially ban all future semi auto firearms with removable magazines. The committee will ban anything else they deem to be military in nature, or what they believe to meet the criteria of Military style, or assault style, or just those that can take magazines with a larger capacity then 5 rounds.
While Marco Mendocino is a lying sack of rotten potatoes. I'll take his word on this one that the committee is their real big stick in this, the amendments not so much. He has made it abundantly clear the committee will have full power to decide what is and isn't an acceptable firearm to own in Canada. This will take the heat off him, and the liberal party for the bans. As they will pass the blame onto the committee one they stacked with anti gun groups and those who tow the liberal line.
If C-21 and the committee come online at similar times they will, almost for certain ban the M1 carbine. They all ready tried with G4. No way in hell they stop trying. All they've done is switch tactics on how to do it. It's now just a matter of when.

It's interesting, Marco Mendocino when he was a crown prosecutor saw lots of cases related to gun violence. He is fully aware that these new laws he is trying to ram through are not worth the paper they are written on. Marco knows full well that the biggest problem is guns being smuggled into Canada from the US. He also knows that the CBSA are not funded enough nor encouraged to find smuggled guns. Sure they find a few here and there and make the odd decent bust when the FBI hands it to them on a silver plater. All Marco knows now is how to kiss Trudeau's ass and keep his job at the expense of anyone who his master aims him at. It's all about buying votes in Quebec.
in plain language, did the recent withdrawal of the C-21 amendments make what was previously deemed unsellable sellable again?
Was there not a ban on the sale, use, transfer of a number of guns as part of the ammendments? (XCR's, M14 etc.)
Are these again sellable until and if C21 comes in?
I find trying to keep track of all these OIC's, ammendments etc. very confusing
c21 amendments were never passed and the new amendments are also not passed so you can still buy and sell long guns that were mentioned in the amendments. The ones mentioned in the may 2020 oic and their variants cannot be bought or sold like the semi auto m14,,s. look up the firearm on armalytics . If it is listed as prohib affected by ban you can’t sell or buy
It is confusing. The May 2020 OIC banned certain things and they remain banned until the (now extended) amnesty expires. Whatever was further banned in the C-21 list is not banned because, first, the C-21 list was removed and, second, any C-21 ban would not take effect until Bill C-21 was passed into law anyway. That will happen once the Senate approves it (the Liberal/NDP coalition saw that it passed a vote in the House of Commons) and it is given Royal Assent by the Governor General. The mischief occurs once C-21 becomes law because in it is the establishment of a committee that, stacked with Liberal anti-gun appointees, will have the power to ban whatever they want. 80 year old military M1 carbine 'assault rifles' will surely be on their list to ban along with Garand's, SKS's and SVT40's.
Take my internet lawyer advice for what it's worth, I don't think M1 carbines (restricted or longer barreled non-restricted) are on the OIC list, and any C-21 ban is not in place even if it exists so, yes, you can sell an M1 carbine. PM me with your price for a decent, unmolested WW2 example and we'll talk...
thank you!
