Gun-rights group asks court to strike down ban on assault-style firearms cdnpoli
Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights CEO Rod Giltaca and vice-president Tracey Wilson hold a news conference on Parliament Hill on Oct. 17, 2018.
The Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights says the rifles are obviously suitable for hunting and sporting purposes since shooters have been using them this way for decades. The move was generally applauded by gun-control advocates as a first step toward removing guns used in mass shootings from circulation.
Rather, the ban is most likely to spur an increase in illegal importing that will lead to more unregistered and untraceable firearms, the application says.
