I dunno, I think it needs more ellipses and typos.

Well, having been to Napanee gun works. I prefer SFRC or Bronson and Bronson. NGW never had much of interest, and they were in fucking Napanee. Which is out of the way for everything. Since Bronson and Bronson remain open, as does SFRC. I dont think Trudeau had anything to do with this shitty little gun store closing, especially since i never saw them carry anything note worthy from the ban list. 🤷 how's that for ill informed.

Tenda and G4C are packed with customers; actually, all the Toronto gun stores are busy.

Sure, perhaps they have fewer items to sell, but business seems brisk.

I'm not so sure the gun ban specifically killed their business—there are still a lot of niche areas they could have tapped into, like 10/22 parts, precision rifle parts, shotgun modifications, or various other goods, gadgets, and gear that are only available in the US market.

The sector isnt doing fine though. Business firearm license numbers and range numbers are both down. Some have it worse than others but the bans have hit the sector hard.
