So some Canadian snow flake has panties in a bunch because of the rifle they are keeping?

He'd probably be less upset if the Conservation Officers were found to be engaged in human sex-slave trafficking…..

Probably some of the same derelicts that are behind the push to ban all handguns...

That article was one of the most idiotic and uneducated I have ever read, regarding any gun issue.

Perhaps this would be a better option: https://www.shortactionprecision.com/products/accurate-mag-308-10-round-long-mag! Only need to get the bolt action rifle which would not be a scary 'black' rifle if you get it in another color. Note you can get P-mags for it!

Is that supposed to be news? Of course the government soldiers, (police officers?) would have multiple shot semi-automatic rifles. Once the people, (bears, wolves, mountain loins?) become a problem, police (soldiers?), need to have an efficient method of neutralization don't they? Seem like a natural progression of things for a country like that doesn't it?

No surprises here, at least for the wise observer. The sheeple (and I rarely use that term) in Canuckistan? Will either ignore it and move on, or be surprised (when they should have seen it coming). They were warned.

What a poorly written piece. Zero details, no facts. What is a hunting rifle vs military grade assault rifle vs patrol rifle? Military firearms have nomenclatures and specifications. They aren't just, "guns".

What caliber are patrol and hunting rifles anyway? Per the story, everyone must agree military assault weapons are 308, because the article says so.

I don't think the complainer would know the difference if he caught a round from either one….

Well, first off, the first photo shows a 5.56 rifle - a 'patrol rifle', and the rifle in the second picture, 'for a bear problem', is not a hunting rifle, at least not for anything substantial. It's only a .22
So, I don't know where these libtard snowflakes are getting their info, but dumber that a tree trunk seems to fit.

Imagine this person coming to the US.

The snowflakes crying about this would have no clue how to deal with the problems these Officers deal with. So to them it makes sense to scream and cry about something they have no clue about of course.

HA,! That's less armament than a NWFA or TNL get together…..

One more reason the Canadians don't need a border wall to keep others out. DR

I never met a Canadian I didn't like but there are limits. They probably do a better job of keeping their lunatics off the streets than we do.

Yeah, they keep 'em off the street by electing them to public office.

Ssshhhhh, nobody tell them that the bolt action hunting rifles they replaced were also designed and implemented as "weapons of war" as were lever guns, revolvers, single action, break action, shotguns, and all black powder rifles.

Truth is that there is not a single type of firearm that was not intended for any other use than as a "weapon of war".

I see no issue with them replacing 130 year old technology with 60 year old technology.
