You never know when you may need a pair. The Canucks might make the finals again this year.

I never really understood why people get all in a dither about knuckledusters or any other weapons. It's not the weapons that are the problem, it's the criminals. And in this story it says that the criminal is well-known to the police...yet he's out walking around and probably is out walking around again right now as I write this.

Seems to me if we'd worry more about criminals instead of doing stupid shit that doesn't make anyone safer we'd actually be safer.

"Undercover officers caught the teen selling three sets of brass knuckles, which are listed as prohibited weapons under the Criminal Code."

I have a semi automatic rifle that shoots a full sized rifle round, and it's non restricted.
Why is what amounts to a fist club, prohibited?

I sometimes really hate the people I share this nation with.

They are sold in some stores? Please do tell and post these stores that are breaking the law.

Hope you take the time to call 911 and have fines levied against them.

Don't call 911 unless it is an emergency. Call the non emergency line.

Well on the upside still not AS bad as 'trailia.




All those sling shot related murders.

I know someone who had a 3in-50 round in his living room. Who do you call about that one?

Me. I have a 76mm recoiless rifle (legal) and I need the spare brass for reloading!

Is this another Second Amendment thing?

Honestly, I don't know if it is or isn't. I think it's more just one of those things that the pointy-headed little freaks haven't thought to regulate. In any case, it is perfectly legal to own a recoiless rifle - even in California - and the only thing I have to think about here is the license and registration for the trailer it's mounted on. I do not ever fire it with anything other than a blank round and this I only do once a year or so at the annual MVCC meetup.

In addition to the 76 I also own a 20mm Solothurn (S-18 variant) that was grandfathered in the 1968 Gun Control Act. Meaning that it, too is legal but I have to maintain records on it as it is illegal to own a new one.

No one ever thought to regulate the larger 76mm which is powerful enough to disable and maybe even hole a MBT.

Prior to 1968 a hardware store like True Value would've stocked such things and no one would've thought a thing about it in the least.
