Yes, you are right. I misjudged.
The factory made a spec version of long barrel for Canada market which makes it unrestricted.
You can still enroll a restrict PAL training & test in RA center alrough many people fail to pass. It just takes time up to 6 moths for gov to do their work and get you a restricted PAL if you pass the test.
By the way, that rifle is good and expensive for sure.
