When all are registered the only difference between restricted and unrestricted is the transfer, storage and transportation requirements. Does it really matter. I don't see any problem requiring the more stringent storage/ transportation requirements for long arms. In effect all firearms are to some degree restricted as you must have a license and register them. Prohibited is another matter, but they will not prohibit long-arms because of the large rural base, particularly in northern Canada, that legitimately needs them. The list has to remain open to some degree to classify new or modified weapons. And by the way I am a shooter who fully supports the gun laws. Sensei Brent
