Maybe this is only in Ottawa, but Federal sounds "Federal." I believe the Law is specific to ban any air guns that look like replica of the real thing. I have also read of legislation that will allow Cities to ban handguns in their jurisdiction, but dont where that is at atm. In Canada a pellet gun is considered a firearm, under the law, and it must be registered. In addition, if you were to take a registered bb gun or pellet gun out the Country, they will not allow you to bring it back in, they will take it from you.

For reference, see: Bill C - 21.

This headline from Feb. 18th 2021

Speaking of gun related stuff, airsoft, bb guns, and pellet guns have been, or will shortly be banned in Canada.
- wildwoodbybrianjohns

Not to my knowledge they aren t.
There is in fact, legislation that is going and has gone through that does ban certain firearms, but none include any of the above.
The firearms that typically come into play are what Liberal Hippies describe as "Assault Rifles" which is any rifle thats black and scary looking.

To bad OJ didn't find the donut truck instead of the Bronco.

 

The phrase "the empire on which the sun never sets" has been used to describe certain global empires that were so extensive that it seemed that at least one part of their territory was always in daylight.Seems to fit the popularity of the "Show".

Petey- It was meant as an aside, besides neither you nor Ted Cruz needs to apologize. For example, I was going to post the big game hunter who shot Cecil the lion and compare it to your rat hunting posts. I will refrain from my asides with you to keep the peace for you are one of my favorites.

My bucket list today-

Brian- thx- I will get back to you on the schools and gun control.

Top Max- I will reply more on the school book- Brian did a good job; I will add more…

Pottz- you seem to claim poverty to Corelz- what did that wife's bday event cost.

LBD- You have more toys than me (notice the lead in I am giving him) and you have Pottz's love.

Gunny- looking forward to hearing about the OSB urn

Breakfast and church back later

Ahhh…Ok,yes, but only 'replica's' which equates to scary black replicas. All air rifles and pellet guns aren't considered firearms. Only if it fires projectiles faster than 500fps and I believe it's only those air/gas actuated guns/firearms that are now banned. IE. Over 500fps, scary looking and black.
And yes, there is in fact legislation that will allow municipalities to ban hand guns completely…as stupid as that is.

 

any rifle thats black and scary looking.

That pretty well sums it up, subjectivity only need apply. On the plus side the folks that are pushing this nonsense are the same calling 2+2 = 4 oppressive. If they have it their way, in the future those tasked with enforcing the rules won't be able to count to 12ga. or up to 5.56.

 

Australia's reply to their government after the death of 35 during the Port Arthur Massacre in 1996.

here is some music to keep the inspiration going-

I Like Guns - Steve Lee

 

Well, on the bright side, in the future most people wont need to count anything, their phone will do it for them. No, I am not actually saying this will be a good beneficial progress.

So Tony, if I ever move to Canada, which I wont, I could spraypaint my scary looking airsoft Kalishnakov pink so as to circumvent da Law?

I know that doesnt matter to you gents, but this one will:

HR 127

Thats a screen cap from Congress.Gov site, I know you cant read the text. Perhaps all you owners should look into this Bill by Sheila Jackson Lee (Dem). This Bill is on the Floor now.

A couple noteable items in this Bill:

New regs on magazines, ammo, shotgun shells. From what I understand, all shotgun calibers but 20 gauge will be eliminated - I could be wrong on that. At any rate, all sorts of new limits on ammo and mag-capacity will be imposed. Say goodbye to those Slugs.

New Registration National data-base for ALL owners. Not just for new owners, but for all owners. Apparantly, all owners of firearms will have to re-register all firearms with this new Gov. Data-base. For a Fee, of course.

Psych evaluations for all owners, pre permit, which you pay for, doubt your health insurance will cover that.

800$ per year fee/tax for ALL owners, for each firearm.

Age requirement for anyone with a permit increases to 21, whereas it was 18, which means it will be illegal for anyone age 18-20 who now has a permit to possess a firearm, retroactive. I may have the details on this one askew, but I think that is pretty close.

There is something in here too, about felons and permits, dont recall exactly. Right now this is a State determined issue, and maybe this is being over-ruled by this new legislation.

For more info, just google HR 127, first hit will be the Congress.Gov site.

Gun rights groups like the GOA and NAGR should be all over this, so you could get info from them. In my view the NRA isnt what it used to be when I was a member, long ago - I wouldnt trust they have your best interests at heart anymore.

- wildwoodbybrianjohns

yeah gun rights ate being chewed away little by little everywhere and will continue until there will be no private ownership of firearms.i quit the nra many years ago.

dinner was free paid for by uncle sams generous donation.

 

My neighbor the retired sheriff told me of how a shop is easily broken into.
Push the top center of the overhead door in. Easy on a double wide door. Insert hook on a short pole and snag the emergency release rope. Most have a T handle. Pull and the door will now open easily. Some even used a fishing pole for the snagger.
Took the big handle off mine to make it a little more difficult. Sheriff sand "with the crooks where there is a will there is a way.'

Very true, problem is I happen to be on other side or in close proximity. Until there is a clear and present danger to someone else's life I am compelled by code to NOT use deadly force. On the other hand just force is fully acceptable. Human body has 200 plus bones in it, I endeavor to see how many can be broken. Idiot will not die, but they won't be dancing, arm wrestling, or procreating in the future. Some people take the ability to chew solid food and breath without a machine for granted ya know?

LOL

just use the red opener release handle as a trigger mechanism, then whatever happens to them they've done to themselves.

 

Only, Pottz, if The People allow it! It used to be said that The People get the Government they deserve. But a more correct way to phrase this would be: The People get the Government they allow.

If The People say nothing, Do nothing, then yes, Others will decide for Them.

Heres something to chew on:

Bacteria on Mars is Life, but a Heartbeat on Earth is not. Weird, that.

NICE!!!

 

Taking a break, my helper Jacob went with some friends to get pizza and soda. Meanwhile we have couple pieces being glued up for my curtain rod hangers. Managed to get both rod holders made and bolted up, few details to do on the hangers that mount to shelf unit but the glue can dry and I needed a snack. Will post some pictures later, sandwich and a cold beer awaits.

 

DW you are good w me.

Pottz funny post on the bored to death. I think the bowl has nice shape and grain.

I know you are all waiting for the results, boys beat the girls today up 3-1 on the year.

Welcome to Tony underscore S

Corlez did you ever go to Mothers Pub on rt 23 wayne NJ? I saw Cindy Lauper there w Blue Angle, I could not take my eyes off of her. i.e talet

 

Table top for second table. Curly maple wrapped in curly walnut. Like 24" wide by by 48 or so long. I had it hanging on the wall as art for several years. That was a coffee table top I made for our NYC apt. Wife hated the base.

I think we hit 78 degrees today.

My dawg (southern) is dog tired after being at the Dog "resort" all day.

 

looks real purty petey cant wait to see that done.you beat us out on temp today only made it to 76 probably warmer downtown tough.supposed to get to 79 tomorrow then drop some.very very dry year weve only had about 2-1/2" of rain so far this winter and our season will drop off quick in about a month.

 

800$ per year fee/tax for ALL owners, for each firearm.

A lot of the locals here in the south their gun tax will exceed their income tax. 2 or 3 rifles for deer and hog, 3 or 4 shotguns for turkey, quail, geese and ducks, pistol or two to shoot varmints, 4 or 5 antiques handed down, and a few more just for fun.

 

Pottz- are planning on lathe turning jar lids?
