The latest missive from HM Govt

Perhaps the Americans on the forum can answer how well a prohibition works.

It made a lot of Canadians rich!

Seriously, anyone the least bit interested in collecting or reenacting WW II needs to join either the N.R.A. in the U.S. or the N.F.A. in Canada or we will all die the death of one thousand cuts. Don't buy into the argument that there is " no legitimate sporting purpose" for military style rifles. Not too long ago while still living in Canada I (legally) purchased an H & R M-14 that had been converted to semi-auto. This is before the government prohibited Converted Autos. My M-14 was an EXCELLENT shooter! I used to shoot I.P.S.C. 3 Gun matches with it, Large Bore competitions, and, loaded with softpoints, I took the darn thing hunting too! It was a great rifle! Well, imagine my confusion when that B...(female dog)...h Kim Campbell told me there was no legitimate sporting purpose for it! How could I have been so ignorant! Kim Campbell, would probably have gotten the vapours if she ever had to hold a firearm, was telling me that there was no legitimate sporting purpose for a firearm I had legitimately been sporting with for years! And people wonder why I moved to Texas! Probably 'cause I can use my concealed handgun to shoot any one trying to "jack" my Full Auto 1919 while I'm on my way to the range! God bless America!

I'll step down from my soap box now. My apologies Geoff, the Canadian Government is probably going to shut you down for being a forum for free thought!
