Shitpost / Memes Got a PAL? Buy a FAL.

I think that pretty much sums up the sentiment of the week.

Record pre-orders have likely been made.

Honestly even if they get prohibited, who cares it’s NR and it’s yours forever

I mean sure, I’ll never advocate for people to ruin their finances, however my only regret with my alleged paper weights was I didn’t buy more. I’d rather have it than never be able to ahave it. At this point they’re priceless as no amount of money in the world can get one in Canada legally.

Also with the rate of decline in this country…I’d rather have an insurance policy on hand.

Unfortunately the long gun registry is back in all but name. In addition to getting a reference number from the CFP, gun stores are now required to write down your PAL number, the make, model and serial number of the NR gun they are selling you, and keep that information for at least 20 years.
