Canada Spent $67 Million On Mandatory Gun Buy Backs - Not One Gun Collected

I bet some are holding out for new leadership like Pollievr to take over and undue it so they don't have to turn it in

Iirc, one reason the so-called Canadian "deadline" was to be Many months after the "implementation" was to be timed to be after a major election .

Justin Trudeau might have needed a prolonged "gray area", after potentially winning many votes by promising action on gun control?

 

[W.E.G.]

I did voluntarily sell the FUBAR Jennings .22 that I bought in "used condition" at a gun show, and I completely ruined with "shade-tree gunsmithin'," to the Washington DC Police Department for $100.

Seemed fair.

I was pleased that the cop inspecting to see if it was in "working condition" failed to notice the missing extractor. Its in orbit somewhere above the railroad tracks behind a warehouse in an industrial park near the Beltway.

And then we have something like this happening ... How many 3D printers are there?

Man makes $21,000 selling 3D-printed guns during NY AG gun buyback program - The man drove six hours to turn in the parts he made on a $200 3D printer - https://www.foxnews.com/us/man-makes-21000-selling-3d-printed-guns-ny-ag-gun-buyback-program

• A New York man ... made $21,000 during a gun buyback program by 3D printing over 100 lower receivers
• "I 3D-printed a bunch of lower receivers and frames for different kinds of firearms"
• "'How many firearms do you have?' And I said, '110,'" Kem reacalls.
• 42 gift cards ... "$21,000 in $500 gift cards."

That's largely estimated by way of NICS requests.

Also why KY always ranks high in gun ownership as they routinely run monthly checks on their CCL holders.

And then......they reelect Trudeau, Shake your head and curse now.

Canadians seem to be proving that they are no longer "citizens" but "subjects". In that case, perhaps they should be called "serfs" instead.

In Canada as with the lower 48, I suspect that the city folk have the country folk outnumbered and outvoted. They have fewer checks and balances, however, so things work on a different scale and pace. Please don't blame the victims.

The international small arms surveys used to tabulate gun ownership by country seem to treat "registered" as meaning the government has records of firearms legally manufactured in, or imported to, the country not necssarily that these guns are registered with the government by the possessor

In a report to one of the small arms surveys, Mexican security expert Georgina Sanchez listed:
3 million registered civilian firearms in "civilian calibers", registered by owner with the Mexican Army.
12 million unregistered military caliber weapons in civilian hands.
40 million unregistered civilian caliber drearms in civilian hands.
