    Yup. This is why they should've had a sit down and worked it out with someone who knows what they are talking about.
    they thought they were being definitive and clever but either obviously didn't realise the scope (remember dick snot Cahill telling them that it wouldn't affect many) of the whole thing or just that they are trying to get as much collateral damage as they can. Bit of both probably

    Under the new legislation firearms will no longer be classified by look, only function. The MSSA definition will no longer legally exist. So the firearm you stated will be fine.
