Buy recommendations With the coming supreme court decision, I'm thinking about pistols.
Years ago, my license was up for renewal. While waiting for my renewal, my license expired. It only took 9 months, lol.
Unfortunately during that time, the OIC happened, and I missed out on all the cool pistol sales.
What with not being able to buy anything since then, I haven't really given attention to the world of new things. I understand we're on the glock Gen 6 now? Used to have a Gen 4. Loved it.
Maybe the supreme court bails us out, all this nonsense goes away and we can go shopping again. So what's new in the world of pistol? I have hope that sometime soon I'll be able to buy something, what should I be putting money aside for?
Anything a with a 10 or less capacity, I hate knowing I'm wasting space with pinned mags.

The Supreme Court is not going to bail us out in this respect. C-21 solidified the handgun freeze, so while they can rule the executive branch originally deciding to ban the transfer of handguns was Ultra Vires, they can not overrule/judge current legislation that solidified that handgun freeze, specifically C-21 because the question isn't whether the Federal Government can restrict handguns through legislation, which historically the Supreme Court has said yes it is their authority to do so and can do so, if they choose to.
