I found this very interesting. The pictures are amazing and really tell a story. There is so much history there it is hard to comprehend. It's too bad the most of those buildings are no longer around.

Sounds like we are getting farther away from a firearms related discussion and more into an economics/business discussion.

Haha, I will take that as a compliment Hammer. I don't need any though. I can get it cheaper than that pretty much whenever I want. I just figured with all the discussion about people not seeing any for years I would remind people what it looks like and that it IS out there.

Midway USA, right now

Awesome comparison and summarization of the current situation that many people are experiencing!

And how many of those rounds have you used in the last year?

I have had no problem finding .22lr ammo at any time. I am constantly reading about it being hard to find and when found, way over priced. Maybe I am just fortunate, but I can always get some IF I need it and pay around 6-7 cents per round. Have never ran into the situation where I was paying...

I believe my original question has been answered more than once over. I do thank you for the replies and answers to my original question. I was never asking for "special treatment" of any kind nor would I expect it, regardless of who I may or may not be. I want to abide by and respect the laws...

That was the point of my original question. I didn't say that I intended on sneaking a gun into Canada at any point. I am trying to do the right thing and research the laws before I make the trip into Canada. Just to clarify, I don't consider myself a "cop" either, my job is definitely quite a...

That's what I figured. It's one of those discretionary things where I would always end up on the short end, a.k.a denied my request. Thanks

Thanks for the link. After reading through it a little, I am not sure what all falls under a prohibited firearm exactly. Section 84(1)a of the Criminal Code states that a prohibited firearm is a firearm whose barrel is less than 105mm or 4.13 inches. It also specifically mentions .25 and .32...

I am not doubting the information you have given me but do you know where to find the laws that outline what you have said?

My family is planning a trip to Minnesota and Canada in a couple of months and I am unfamiliar with laws pertaining to concealed carry in Canada. Does anyone here have any experience or made a recent trip to Canada while carrying concealed? I am a POST certified LEO in Missouri and I am always...

I can and will post some of what I have in the trading post. I need to go through and make a detailed list of what I have available. It would be nice to get some trades so I can possibly add some new pieces to my collection. I doubt anything would be too local as I don't know of many members...

Thank you for the suggestions that have come in. Some are quite intriguing, the .260, 7mm-08 and now the .22-250. I already have rifles in .243, .25-06 and .223 that have been mentioned and I am sure those calibers could do what I want, I am wanting something different to add to what I have...
