Misc IWI Carmel Event

Post image

Not sure if this is allowed on the sub but I saw this pop up, If anyone lives in the area and is interested in trying out the IWI Carmel before purchasing it I think this would be a great opportunity! Easthill Outdoors is in Clarington ON

Dude, the OIC isn't gonna be reversed, C-21 isnt getting scraped and grandfathering isnt happening. Get any semi while you can

Not under this government, but give it time. We had to wait more than a decade to scrap the long gun registry, but we got there eventually.

As long as you know what's going to happen to it. 99%+ of the people who buy one of these things are not going to have the balls to keep it in defiance of the law, and are just going to be pissing money away when they inevitably surrender it.

Even if we do get a conservative government 10 plus years from now (God willing Canada still exists) will they really be interested in undoing and old policy that the average Canadian won't even care about? I understand Harper got rid of the LGR but that doesn't automatically mean a future conservative government will repeat. I have total faith PP would but something tells me we'll sadly have a different leader in 10 plus years.

I highly doubt it'll take that long.

Well no, of course it doesn't mean that automatically. Nothing is literally guaranteed. Nobody can sit here and tell you what's going to happen with 100% certainty. But we're an important enough part of their base that I strongly believe that they will.
