I recently went through the exemption process and finally was able to pick up my handguns yesterday.

Brought them home and cleaned them up. I still need to break down the High Standard and do a deep clean, I lent my tools to my father and needed a rubber mallet.

I know it isn't much for us, but if a large number of new shooters get their exemptions and pistols I wonder if we can lobby for center fire to be used in more sports shooting events and get exempted that way... Instead of just being grandfathered in.

Smith & Wesson 617 - 6 inch barrel

High Standard Supermatic - Citation

Ruger MK II - Target

The first two pictures are the before and after it was cleaned.

I'm left handed so I'll be ordering a custom grip for the High Standard. Wondering if my aunt can just bring it over from the states since it's just all wood?

For competition, the Arnprior District Rifle and Revolver Association.

I'm part of the RA Gun club in Ottawa and practice there regularly.

Thanks for the heads up!

Oh nice I visit my parents in Burlington pretty often. Too bad the range there isn't open for drop ins.
