The government is also withdrawing a list of guns that would have been classified as "prohibited" firearms.
The government had intended to ban long guns that generate more than 10,000 joules of energy, or guns with a muzzle wider than 20 millimetres — two rules that would have rendered many firearms illegal.

Still a long way to |
So the guns with the 10,000 joules and 20mm+ muzzles are off the chopping block now ???
