OK. Here's Mike trying to defuse the thread over in the Ready Line with the UK banning airsoft, props or whatever. Typical government knee jerk reaction to gain votes in some election down the road "Look at how our Administration fights crime". So here's where you can debate having guns/airsoft or whatever carrying concealed, in the open or while hunting. Me? Being a redneck from Alberta (yes, I like Country & Western music), I own lots of guns including a converted to semi- auto only MG34. I've owned guns ever since I was 16 and am now 46. I've been handloading (making my own ammo) for everything I shoot except .22lr for almost as long. I have numerous pistols, shotguns & rifles from .22lr to .308 Win. I only own one Airsoft, my G&P M41A and well it's "OK", it's not a real gun so I can't seem to get into the excitement of Airsofting. It will have to do for conventions. I believe I should be allowed to carry a pistol concealed or even strapped to my side while in the bush but the government won't let me. Sucks to be me. I envy my US lower state cousins as gun laws are state legislated. In Canada, it's federally legislated so the yuppie in Toronto is under the same laws as the trapper in the Yukon, the hunter in P.E.I. or the IPSC shooter in British Columbia. I wish the gun laws were provincially/territorially legislated. Maybe when the Conservatives get a majority in the next election, we can pursue that dream of mine.
This is Mike's thoughts on guns from a western Canadian attitude. What are your views. Fire away!
