An estimated 245 firearms sold to unsuspecting gun owners in Canada by firearms businesses were misclassified as semi-automatic guns when they were actually fully automatic military surplus firearms, according to the RCMP.
The RCMP are now asking owners to turn over their newly purchased guns, which were imported and sold by three firearm businesses as semi-automatic Tavor X95s, which can legally be sold in Canada. The Mounties say the guns are actually X95 MSWs, a fully automatic firearm prohibited in Canada.
