GM.
May your coffee and whiskey be strong, your candy bars be full-size, and your anti-gun governor’s nightmares be full of FPC lawsuits.
Happy Halloween. 🎃

October 30th was to be the end of the amnesty period protecting lawful gun owners from prosecution... but the CCFR has been relentless with every angle of this fight. We never gave up, we never backed down, and YOU stood side by side with us all the way 👉 firearmrights.ca/reminder-am…

“We absolutely believe that not only is self defence with a firearm legal under Canadian law, it should be a legal reason to acquire a firearm.,” said Tracey Wilson, VP of PR for the @CCFR_CCDAF
Toronto Police have indicated who they are looking in home invasion shooting and hammering as rest of city asks when innocent victims can stop being sitting ducks and arm themselves with guns, like the bad guys have, to protect their families? torontosun.com/news/local-ne…

Bodycam footage has been release of a Portland police shooting earlier this month.
Officers responded to a call of a man actively stabbing people on the street because that's what people do in Portlandia.
Upon exiting his patrol vehicle, the officer observed Eric Jonathan Hurtado (36), stabbing people in front of a hotel. The officer drew his Gen5 Glock 17 with Aimpoint COA direct milled enclosed red dot optic and Streamlight TLR-1 HL weapon light and performed an impromptu ballistics test with some Federal 147gr 9mm JHP projectiles (🤌🏽) on Mr. Hurtado's torso.
The test was successful and Mr. Hurtado died from his wounds, saving taxpayers millions of dollars.
Carry accordingly...

The RCMP’s Tactical Training Section works year-round to keep frontline members ready for the challenges they may face on duty. For approximately six months each year, instructors deliver mandatory firearms recertification training.

A Proposal
"Every politician who votes for measures limiting or restricting the ability of responsible citizens to protect themselves shall be deemed an accomplice to every attempted or realized attack on anyone."
Same thing in spirit for judges.
Who else?

📺 WATCH: Anchor @ArdaZakCP24 & Toronto lawyer Kim Schofield discuss Canada's "liberal interpretation" of self-defence, during which she asks the million-dollar question 👇
"If somebody is armed with a firearm, and you don't have a firearm, how are you going to defend yourself?"

More hoops for Canadian firearms owners, courtesy of a Carney government happy to let bureaucrats pile on red tape.
Now, even black powder enthusiasts, antique firearm owners, and historical reenactors may face more hurdles just to pursue their legitimate interests. More bureaucracy, more restrictions, and more government pretending it's accomplishing something.

The RCMP released this photograph of its officers training, and we would be remiss if we didn't offer a little friendly advice: perhaps someone should go over the fundamentals of pistol handling with this officer.
We'd suggest a civilian RPAL course, but there's just one problem: the Liberals' handgun freeze. Funny how the government can make it harder for ordinary Canadians to access handgun training while the people entrusted with enforcing firearms laws are the ones making headlines for their "technique".

American gun owners are looking north and watching Canada as a cautionary tale of what happens when a government runs amok with its firearms policies for nothing more than political gain.
It would be great if Ottawa could stop providing them the entertainment...

At the Valour Park Association 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐧 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐭 in Wainwright, Alberta, Canada's National Firearms Association spoke with Hans Brink of the The Loyal Edmonton Regiment Military Museum and Valour Park to discuss an event that was about much more than a day on the range.
Hans takes us through the historically significant firearms featured at the shoot, explains why preserving Canada's military history matters, and shares some insight into the work, planning, and coordination required to make this landmark event happen.
From preserving historic firearms and keeping Canada's military heritage alive to bringing enthusiasts together for a good cause, this was an event worth remembering.
And Hans may just let the cat out of the bag about when we could see the next one!
Watch the interview, learn more about the history behind the firearms, and find out what it takes to make an event like this possible.
Canada's National Firearms Association was proud to sponsor this event, supporting the Loyal Edmonton Regiment Military Museum, the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) Regimental Society, and the Valour Park Association.
The NFA had in attendance Ontario Director and Lobbyist Tom Mavin - @Feral999 , General Manager Ginger Fournier, Director at Large Nathaniel Milljour, and Alberta Director Dwayne Gorniak - @white_whisker .
It was great to see MLA Garth Rowswell of the UCP attending the event, and always a great time catching up with Avery Shoaf of Rust Valley Restorers fame.

It never ceases to be a wild stat to me that the main financier of gun control in the United States is worth more than the total economic activity of the entire gun industry in a given year.
Gun control orgs so desperately want to imagine themselves as David. But they are a big, authoritarian, nannystate Goliath.
