    You can literally see a direct link between difficulty of acquiring a gun legally and difficulty acquiring a gun illegally.

    Statistically, majority of guns used in crime were legally purchased at some point in their existence

      That’s really not at all baffling? We’re talking guns over 100 years old ending up on these ban lists.

      The recent public safety announcement they claim that the rifles banned were meant for war. Guns like the GSG (German Sports-Shooting Gun) were banned while not banning the SKS (Made literally for ww2).

      The logic here is admittedly flawed and not enough Canadians realize that.
