Feets / Collection / My build I'm back in the family.

After all the announcements, I decided to sell everything I owned that could be touched by future bans because I can't afford loosing such amount of money. I sold my beloved M1 Garand, my M1 Carbine, my many sks, my Beretta 1301 pro competition , etc.

Got lucky to sell the m1 Carbine in time since it then got caught in the OIC. But I regretted every single one I sold.

Then, after few months of reflection, I decided not to let the liberal government control me with fear. That is not the way a democracy should work. It should be the government that should be scared of the People. So I decided to buy another Sks and be back in the proud Canadian family of sks firearms owners.

I chose a beautiful Chinese Type-56 M-21 French tickler Sks.😍

Next, finding another M1 Garand in God's Caliber.

Heading to the range tomorrow!

Go out and shoot!

Cheers!

Got a friend who has 46 000$ worth (buyback prices) of firearms that were banned . That's a hard blow.

No kidding... 46k could do so much for my family. 

Like power to you if you have enough assets that 46k is a drop in the bucket, but for me it would be very reckless and a disservice to my family to have that much money in something that can easily be banned and taken away

Exactly why I sold everything.

But it felt wrong to have to do that ...

Oh absolutely wrong to have to do it.

The whole thing is wrong. But I get anyone who has to be smart with their money. Keep a few fun guns that you can afford the loss of and then also enjoy collecting some lesser risk firearms as well
