Alberta firearms maker ‘riled up’ as Mounties ban popular rifle from Canadian market

A Calgary-based firearms company says one of its rifles being classified as prohibited by the RCMP has thrown his business into “crisis mode.”

“Right now, I’m all riled up, because I get very frustrated. I’ve been in the industry now for like 28 years,” said J.R. Cox, head of Sterling Arms International. “It’s these rulings that, to me, completely devalue and delegitimize the RCMP technical identification team.”
