Slide fire stock 10/22 stock?

Holy crap. A slide fire thread and a " why is the ak prohibited" thread on the same day.

How have you been a member since 2005 and not come across this before? A quick search yields plenty of locked threads about the subject.

I can see if it was one of those cranks on the trigger and such but this essentially makes it the same action as a slam fire Winchester Model 12 shotgun with a shorter throw. Even though it assist you in shooting faster, so does a trigger job, a shorter throw trigger, an adjustable match trigger and host of other mods that are totally legal, discussed here and accepted as common place here. I don't get the difference, it's still one trigger pull, one shot. Doing an inet search there seems to be a lot of discussion on these and most are accepting them as legal. Here is one example. https://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091030133555AAkT96k

And about not seeing one of these threads before.. I don't check all the threads that do not apply to me at that time just to post something.. I only look at what threads do apply to me, what and how I shoot. So please forgive my ignorance on that one.
 
That link relates to bump firing, not an add on slidefire stock device.
On Tuesday, call 800 731 4000, get patched through to a tech, and ask.

Part 4, Section 1?

Getting technical on that.. The stock system does not fire the rifle.. it is still you finger that fires the rifle, without having your finger in place and making a movement for each shot it will not fire. The stock is simply allowing the action to slide back and forth with the recoil more freely, therefore the mechanical device does not "operate" the trigger which is a "must" in this legislation.

Do you know how a slidefire stock works?

Just what has been explained in the videos and media on there website.. From what I understand from this stock is that it is essentially a two piece stock that the butt stock slides on a rail indepedant from the action and forestock with a piece BEHIND the trigger to reset the trigger faster but your finger has to still actuate the trigger itself, this stock only reduces the reset time between shots from there media.

Also I just went through the five pages or so of "slide fire" threads over the years and still can't come up with anyone that has called the help line on this and actually posed the question on this particular item.. I may have missed it though, been a hell of a long day.
 
My guess is one cfo will say one thing and another will say something different.
Look at the mess with the 858 and the 715t. The list goes on and on.
That being said, the devise is used to fire the firearm more quickly, yes?
Yes it doesnt have anything connected to the trigger, it makes your finger move/bumpfire the gun.
Thus it machanically helps you fire the gun quicker.
PROHIBITED
silly I know

Ya ya draggin this out.. from the legislation quoted earlier in the thread, this is not prohibited..

"Any electrical or mechanical device that is designed or adapted to operate the trigger mechanism of a semi-automatic firearm for the purpose of causing the firearm to discharge cartridges in rapid succession."

This stock does not "operate" the trigger at all which is specifically stated that to be a prohibited device it would have to.. I'm gonna call a tech on Tuesday as tmm is a holiday and most likely wont get anyone helpful. If I do get a firm answer one way or another I will request a letter on it and make sure I post it and maybe we can get this "stickied" some where to end these threads, hmm or start a ton of new ones.. Not sure how that will go...lol

Let us know how that goes.
 
The product known as the SSAR-15 Slide Fire manufactured by Slide Fire Solutions, falls under the ambit of the Regulations appended to The Criminal Code Part III, Section 84 - PART 4, Prohibited Devices, paragraph 1.

"Any electrical or mechanical device that is designed or adapted to operate the trigger mechanism of a semi automatic firearm for the purpose of causing the firearm to discharge cartridges in rapid succession".

The Slide Fire device is a "prohibited device". For this reason you do not see the SSAR-15 Slide Fire manufactured by Slide Fire Solutions offered for sale in Canada.

Hope this helps.
