    It just made too much sense.
    I support the use of suppressed firearms for many reasons including hunting but a big part of me fears the likely rise in poaching and less being caught

    What would stop poachers from using suppressors in the first place? They're already comfy with breaking the law as it is, what's harm is it in breaking two? Poachers who have been previously convicted might even be under a firearms ban and they still manage to get equipped in that regard. Availability of real suppressors might pose difficulty but there's plenty that seem to be improvised out of oil filters. If they choose to poach with a bow or crossbow its quite irrelevant anyways.

    Imagine how many ranges could reduce noise complaints from neighbors if suppressors were legalized? Shooting facilities would benefit, fewer would be closed by NIMBY's who move in next to existing facilities, peoples hearing safety would increase and the sport could get a positive boost. Hunting with a suppressed rifle would be great, hearing safety would get a massive boost there. People need to hear the movement of game when they're hunting, so most don't have hearing protection for the shot or two they'll take. Those unprotected shots add up over the years.

    Long overdue, if they don't have an online version I will make sure to sign it at the Toronto Sportsmen Show when we are there exhibiting.

    Revolvers RULE; remember that next time you BEND over to pick up brass OR ejected brass pings off the precision gear.
    Looking for a car pool buddy for weekly weekday trips from Burnaby to POCO. Better yet I'll drive weekly and you take me hunting.

    Exactly. It's 2017. Not 1917. Get with the program and set up a online petition. Not everyone lives close and wants to spend money on mail.

    There is a copy on the original sound moderator thread (https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/foru...IALLY-LAUNCHED) where you can download a copy, print off, sign, and send in. Unfortunately we don't have any control over how the petition is created/presented, we're just trying to support the community by offering a place people can come in and sign it. Thanks.
