Misc American here with a few questions

I'm not trying to gloat or anything like that, just genuinely curious about Canadians and how they're feeling about guns, gun rights, and gun purchases. You guys were clearly given the shaft when it comes to guns.

Question 1: I see a lot of comments here passing up on $900 SKS's or Carmel's because they're a ripoff. Why not spend a little extra to get your hands on a semi-automatic rifle since the vast majority of them are banned? I feel like I would if I were in your shoes. 22's are just cope imo.

Question 2: how sacred are guns to the average user here?

Question 3: how is morale? Do you guys have hope for the future? If a conservative PM wins, do you think he'll unban a lot of shit?

Coles notes here...

  1. $900 for an sks is way over priced. They ises to have deals where you buy a crate of surplus ammo and get an sks for $75.

2.Most of not all semi auto rifles have been prohibited even though they've been in our safes since the OIC. New semi auto 22's seem to be ok for now but there's only 2 I think and the quality is something to be desired.

  1. If the conservatives get in we can only hope they stick to their word and use common sense repeal the OIC. There is hope woth the CCFR going to the Supreme Court and challenging it. Many people are choosing not to part take in the gun confiscation program
