These applications deal with three categories of guns. 1) Rifles or shotguns with a muzzle velocity of over 500 feet per second, a barrel length of less than 18L4 in­ ches and which use centre­ fire ammunition in a semi­ automatic mode. Also in­ cluded are guns such as pistols designed to be fired with one hand; 2) Guns that can be folded or telescoped shorter than 26 inches; 3) Fully automatic weapons registered prior to January 1,1978, and forming part of a bona fide gun collection. Chief Provincial Firearms Officer, Jim Villemaire, of the O.P.P. Registration Branch says, “We processed 22,000 during the amnesty, ten times the usual number. All of the applications have to be vetted through Ottawa”.
