If you allow me, Mr. Chair, I will support my colleague on this question. In terms of the way it functions right now—and I don't want to say if it's a loophole or not—I'll just explain the process. If the gun that is manufactured in Canada is non-restricted and deemed to be non-restricted by the manufacturer, they aren't required to verify with the RCMP to verify the classification itself. It is sold as non-restricted.
What we heard from stakeholders is that in some instances, these non-restricted guns, due to the complex classification process, could be actually restricted but are sold in the market, and by the time the RCMP gets them and measures them—it's a very detailed process, as you probably saw when you had your visit—
