What is the AR15?
ArmaLite Rifle model 15 is a lightweight, intermediate cartridge magazine-fed, air-cooled, with a rotating lock bolt, actuated by a piston within the bolt carrier or by conventional long/short stroke piston operation ArmaLite sold the design to Colt who own the AR15 trademark The rifle was designed by Eugene Stoner, Jim Sullivan, Bob Fremont in 1957. The AR15 was adapted to use the 5.56mm round, Stoner’s original design, the AR10, was designed to use the 7.62mm (308 Winchester) round. Colt started selling the semi-automatic AR15 in 1963 M16 was introduced in the US Military in 1963 as a select fire 20” rifle with a fixed legth buttstock chambered in 5.56x45mm with a 20 round magazine. M16 is in its 5th iteration the M16A4 M4 carbine variant has a collapsible stock and 14.5” barrel M4 is in its second iteration in the M4A1, along with several variants Canadian Armed Forces use the Colt Canda (Diemaco) C7 and C8 manufactured in Kitchener, ON.

All AR15s and variants are restricted by name though Orders In Council Restricted firearms must be unloaded and either: Made inoperable with a secure locking device (such as a trigger lock) and securely locked in a sturdy container, cabinet or room that cannot be easily broken into; or Locked in a vault, safe or room that was built or adapted for storing these types of firearms Transportation: Restricted and prohibited firearms must be: unloaded, made inoperable with a secure locking device, and locked in a sturdy container. Magazine Capacity Semi-Auto rifles are limited to 5 rounds There are 10 round pistol magazines that work in the AR15 (LAR15) 50 Beowulf magazines holt 5 rounds of 50 Beowulf, and also happen to hold about 15 rounds of 223.
Why are AR15s treated this way?
At one point they were non-restricted. They were also briefly prohibited.
They should be classed based on their technical characteristics;
Restricted:
has a barrel length under 470 millimetres (18.5 in) can be fired when the overall length has been reduced by folding, telescoping, or other means to less than 660 millimetres (26 in)Non-Restricted
has a barrel length over 470 millimetres (18.5 in) can be fired when the overall length has been reduced by folding, telescoping, or other means to over 660 millimetres (26 in)

Hi Andrew
I am enjoying listening to your latest episode and l thought l might mention a little bit of firearm liscence history, that the RCMP omitted from there website.
Between 1995 and 1998 CFSC was one course. The study book contained both restricted and non-restricted material. When l challenged the test, handguns were apart of the test.
The Liberals had a meltdown when they discovered that they had unknowingly liscenced thousand of firearms owners for restricted status and quickly change the course and test into two seperate courses.
If the last digit on your firearms liscence is a four and hand guns were apart of your one CFSC and test, you are already liscenced for restricted firearms. Just pay the extra $20 on top of your $60 and check off restricted on your PAL renewal.
Many......older PAL holders are not aware of this fact. Keep up the good fight!
