Would you?

No. I already have over $15K of restricted firearms that I can't use at the range and might be confiscated.
 
Yes, I did just that.

I bough a rifle 2 weeks before it was banned in 2020 and shot it once... #### it. But also knock on wood.
 
Tricky one.

All things being equal I would choose the NR version over the restricted (for obvious reasons) however thats not to say I would never pick up a restricted.

Now, more than ever, registration leads to confiscation (unless you are a criminal then carte blanch).
 
Depending how much money it is for you. I bought some handguns before the ban but kept the value rather low. I had restricted rifles before, like a VZ58 with 11.8 inch barrel, very cool, but considering the restrictions in place for it, I sold it. Too much hassle. A NR I can just throw in the back of my truck. For that reason I never had an AR15.
 
Would you buy a restricted rifle say a bren 2 with this government in power?

Probably not a great investment with the current government in power . Any firearm with a paper trail seems very risky these days as Trudeau and the Liberals seems to be the most unstable , and unpredictable govt. that Canada has had in the last 100 years or more .
 
Hell no. With the legal hurdles involved in restricted class, I see no benefit to owning an SBR that is otherwise NR at a full rifle barrel length.
 
Yup. I'm not going to live my life in fear of a corrupt, incompetent goverrnment that is on its way out of power. I do as I please, and it pleases me greatly to buy new guns - especially the type that piss off Lieberals!

I have been enjoying my restricted Bren 2 rifle since July of last year. Had I opted not to buy a restricted firearms because "government maybe", I would have missed out on 9 months of fun so far! It has been a literal blast!

This illegitimate “government” couldn’t organize a yard sale at the best of times, I’m not real concerned over them ever pulling off the largest gun theft in history. None of my oic or future prohibited Restricteds are going anywhere I don’t choose to take them. And if you want it, buy it, enjoy it and keep it until you find something you like better!
