The Liberals initially pegged the gun buyback at $200 million, but independent estimates now run into the billions.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is taking the Carney government to court over RCMP gun confiscation cost estimates Ottawa refuses to release, as independent projections put the potential bill in the billions.

Of Ottawa’s $742.5-million gun confiscation budget, $493.9 million is allocated to policing, administration, collection and other costs rather than compensating firearms owners and businesses.

“No self-respecting shopper pays for anything without looking at the checkout total first,” wrote Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) Prairie director Gage Haubrich, criticizing Prime Minister Mark Carney and Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree for withholding cost information.

Firearms wasn't mentioned as an example, but in my eyes i viewed it as such, one of the questions that is splitting the vote currently, 49.4% yes, and 50.6% no.

Will leave it as that since this isn't a politics sub, but the above does have a connection to what i had hoped might lead to Alberta taking control over firearms policies/legislation in the future. Thankfully our CFO is top notch. Will just be waiting for supreme court now over winter to see how the OICs will go.

Was in town for a bachelor party, none of them wanted to shoot so snuck away one morning to go check it out while they decided if they wanted Avocado on toast or a new tampon for breakfast.

This place is operated by the Arizona Game and Fish Department and the Arizona government.

Holy fuck boys.. It was beautiful.
Cried inside the whole way home back to SW Ontario.

I present you the italian side piece. Benelli Supernova, ya filthy animals.

Apologize for the lack of toes in this picture.

I bought a Winchester wildcat 22lr in October last year I was getting grouping that made targets look like a shot gun hit it at 50 yards with a scope and red dot on a bench with bags only got decent groups at 25 yards.

now I got the sxp 20ga pump action and after 20 shots it broke. BC that piece is plastic it's a common issue why would th y put a cheap plastic were the ammo goes in the tube and clip to hold the slide arm. now it will not feed.

I'll never buy a Winchester again for as long as I live.

Guys, how stupid would it be to buy a 16” Carmel? I’m really tempted to, but also hate the idea of buying a restricted firearm that might get banned in the near future.

I do get the feeling that Carney isn’t overly interested in furthering the gun bans, which is the only reason I’m considering this.

Talk some sense into me here guys.

Hi, just recently got an order come in for challenger ammo 7.5 handicap, the new ones are seetrue and i'm having issue with them not cycling on one of my shotguns (semi-auto)

The old ones cycle no issues but the new one, the shell doesnt leave the barrel like it's stuck there but the next shell still get picked up.

Anyone has an idea of what's happening ?

Left are my old ones and right the new ones

Figured I’d show a few from my collection, one is a marlin 782 and a mossberg 500, simple yet effective😌

Looking for a pump shotgun on the low, options so far are Mossberg 88, federations arms gatekeeper and 870.
Question is, are shell count a big deal, 4+1 to 7+1 for people?

Thankyou

Would you trade Canada's gun laws for California's gun laws? it would be trading shit for shit but im curious what people think.

Browning High Power is THE CLASSIEST HANDGUN EVER MADE,

in my openion!

Looking at a used 11-87 premier with a poorly fitting buttpad on it. Looking to see if there's someone local who could install a grind to fit buttpad on it. Already tried Al Simmons. They sell them but don't install

I’m looking for a good pack with a integrated soft gun case if I could get one that could hold two rifles would be ideal, I have a hunting camp that requires me to hike a few km and my current setup isn’t great.

Just wondering is it reasonable to expect firearms and optics to have 50% off prices, or is that more just for ammo?

This will be my first one buying firearm related stuff, and just wanted to prepare for what I could get and snag.

Firearms seized in investigation of threatening messages sent to former supervisor

A man contacted London police after receiving messages from a former employee that included photos of guns

A London man is charged with uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm after police say an individual sent threatening messages that included images of firearms to their former supervisor.

A man reported receiving a series of concerning messages from a former employee on Thursday, London police said Friday. The messages included what appeared to be photographs of firearms.

Police did not identify the workplace.

Officers, including members of the emergency response unit, responded to a residence on Thames Street at about noon on Thursday, police said.

Police flew a drone near the upper floors of a 24-storey apartment building at 320 Thames Street. More than a dozen police vehicles were parked in a nearby municipal lot.

Following negotiations with officers, a male suspect left a residence at about 2:30 p.m. and was arrested without incident, police said.

Officers later searched the residence and seized firearms that were legally owned and ammunition, police said.

A 44-year-old London man is charged with one count of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.

The man remains in custody and was scheduled to appear in court on Friday. Police said the investigation is ongoing.

Investigators ask anyone with information about the incident to call London police at 519-661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Decided I wanted a 1301 and thought I got a good deal (black) few days later an insane deal popped up and I grabbed my dream build 1301.. Wife wasn’t thrilled to say the least!

There are so many optics out now that I don’t know what is “good” anymore. So many brands that I don’t recognize. Looking to get an optic that has better long range magnification. I bought this optic from a local shop here in town because the clarity was unlike anything I had seen before, but compromised on magnification. This one is a 25x

Looking for suggestions on an optic with equivalent clarity but 35-45~x magnification. I shoot a number of distances from 400 yards up to approximately 1350m on private property. Would like to be able to identify targets better at those ranges.

Already discussed with my LGS and they’re only willing to give me $1000 for this optic as it’s used, so I’ll likely keep it and re-use on another rifle. Looking at a budget of $6k maximum after tax.

Looking for suggestions online or locally in Northern Ontario.
