Misc “Men don’t wear pistols in Canada!”

The photographic, archaeological & written evidence seems to suggest otherwise.

Don‘t even make me delve into the first legislation against firearms ownership which dominion of Canada implemented and where those laws applied and who they were used against.

I am a machinist, making guns disappear could only be accomplished by ending humanity.

I didn’t say anything about making guns disappear. I just don’t think it would be good for us to have just anyone able to carry firearms. Imagine all the people that make you want to carry being armed as well.

Those people are already carrying and you arent. Youd be surprised who is carrying and what they have.

They aren’t. It’s not easy concealing a full size frame. Most people who have the fear will carry 9+ and we don’t see compact frames when the police do their perp galleries. I am aware there are lots of stingers in Canada. It’s not Canadian to walk around all scared trying to hide a gun in your pants. That’s US chicken shit behaviour.

Its very easy concealing a full size frame in a country where you can wear oversized hoodies and jackets for most of the year. And when I mean carrying im including what people might stash in the garbage can or car in their close proximity. Not everything ends up in a perp gallery most illegal firearms do not. They are seizing a small percentage. If you live in a rough neighborhood you know how accessible illegal firearms are and even young teens have them.

Ok. We mostly see full sized frames when they show their loot. Thugs don't like 1911s eh?

Its easy for them to go to the us find straw buyers or even just buy off the secondhand market without any paperwork then come back with a trunk full of guns. The border agency catches 1 every so often but its apparent that most are getting across. The government was so focused on confiscating the wrong firearms from legal responsible firearm owners all the while thousands of illegal firearms were crossing now they will have to catch up to start seizing them 20-50 at a time. Even when a criminal does a broad daylight shooting they get almost as much time in custody as a citizen does after using a weapon to protect themselves against a home invasion. Ive seen a video of a shooter getting out of jail laughing because he commited a shooting broad daylight in the city and did less than a year.

Canadian gun control laws are an exercise in Anarcho-Tyranny.

I think they like glocks , dracos and ar pistols. I know tow truck drivers were illegally carrying and shooting eachother for like a decade or more. I havent heard much about it lately but there was some crazy shootings they were involved in like this one https://youtu.be/xNIhPOuR_1c?si=a_aOvf0pkycywjcR

I literally have literally concealed carried a CZ-52 with an inside the waistband holster here in the US. That’s not a small pistol, it’s a full sized service pistol. I know people who have CCW’d full sized 1911’s or Beretta 92’s. It’s not difficult to conceal a handgun on your person. Most Canadians also as a result of living in a place where people typically do not carry don’t look at things like people’s waistlines or if they are carrying a fanny pack, or the newest rage with ATL youth which is to wear skinny jeans, their sisters jacket and stuff their handgun under their arm and hold it in the armpit, so when people look at their waist they see skinny jeans, assume they are not carrying a pistol. 

Truth be told, a lot of criminally minded people do not use holsters, they just stuff it into a waistband, backpack or pocket. I literally have more holsters than pistols.

Yea itd probally more rare to find a holster in the streets than a gun lol besides waist bands and hoodies some guys are wearing purse-like things and some shooters are pretty intelligent they live in urban areas so they have protocols with vehicles , license plates , concealing their face. There was even one where the shooter was on camera wiping prints off things immediately after the shooting and then running. 8 years later they never been caught https://youtu.be/qAl-LS5eo1E?si=Q9bLaWYn8jqorTqZ
