Y'know, they started up here, Para Ordnance, in Toronto, in 1985. Since then, especially since the '90s, they've moved almost everything they do south of the border due to the anti-gun attitude of the Liberals in the '90s, and the extreme anti-gun attitude of the old mayor of Toronto, David Miller, who banned firearms manufacturing in the city. It's a damn fucking shame. There's also only, like, 1 shop I know about in the actual city of Toronto, the largest city in the country, that sells firearms. The biggest damn city, and only 1 place in the actual city sells guns. The next closest place is Bass Pro in Vaughan, but they can't sell pistols because the Vaughan city board told them not to.

Can't you americans be happy with how your gun-laws are?
I mean the only good thing about Norwegian gunlaws is that silencers are near unrestricted.

Look at the Patriot Act, some of that was found to be unconstitutional, yet it was passed anyway.

That's what I was getting at.
If you had a choice, what would you pick? An M1903 or a M1 Carbine? I just started WW2 re-enactments with my dad since he managed to buy a uniform for cheap off of someone, and he's giving me a choice of one of those to buy if I decide I like it. The thing is, is that he decides to only bring the ammo required (ex. 10 M1 garand clips) and none extra, so I am going to have to be stingy with my ammo and we would also use it as a range piece on some weekends.
Get the 1903. Finding ammo for the carbine is apparently a pain in the ass.
You could start reloading you know, saving both cost and effort of finding the damn ammo. And as far as I know, the M1 Carbine has such a low exit speed that you can use homogenous lead bullets, and if you cast them yourself you've saved alot of cost. (If you use it that much :v: )

.30 Carbine ammo is more abundant up here than the actual gun. Still, I've never seen a Sprinhfield 1903 on the market... If the 1903 has a scope then get it.

'Tis true. It's on par with complaining about traffic, when a sizable chunk of the world's population have to walk miles for anything.
Everything is relative. Just like how Massachusetts will seem like a freedomless hell hole compared to Arizona, Canada and much of the West has much stricter laws on things than America.
Just lubed up the AK. Can't wait for this weekend... Friggin 60% chance of rain though...

Eh, S&W mags.
Now [url=http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=252686238]THIS[/url], on the other hand...
Yeah, but see, the odds of me being able to afford the first one are far greater than me being able to afford a FAL.
That and my father might actually let me get the first one because he'd think a FAL is too...threatening or something :v:

OH for fucks sake, shut the fuck up about that, we GET IT you really like your lolk47, we GET IT that you think for really asinine reasons AR's 'aren't reliable' we GET IT.
Jesus, Mary, Joseph and Putin on a ritz cracker, stop flooding everything related to firearms with inane comments about you and your AK and Baltimore!
Hello my username is faze.
I've never had a good nights sleep in all my days
I love my AK so much I want to marry it
I think its more reliable than that silly AR shit
It has far superior stopping power despite what people say
they must be gelatinous over the awesomeness of my AK
hooray!

It wasn't so much a flame it was more of a heated observation based critique and summary of your posts in these threads.
I'm venting because I'm sick of having to read your regurgitated talking points which you can't back up, I'm baffled that you're far older than me and have been able to do what you do yet you don't have the discernment or judgment of what 'contributes' to a discussion on this subject in any relevant or meaningful way.
You react and you don't think it through.
For goodness sake slow down and just [i]think through some of your comments.[/i]
Because when you blurt that stuff out and spread it around, you open yourself up to ridiculing and you make everyone whose a proponent of private ownership of firearms look like an ass.
Sector7 pointed this out and criticized you for this. You've been teased in this thread because of this. This is the second time I've pointed this out to you.
