    Looking for 1st handgun suggestions...HELP

    Evening all.....Looking for 1st handgun suggestions, primarily for target practice
    Got my PAL/RPAL last year and now looking to purchase a handgun primarily for target practice, in order to get better at marksmanship.

    Note: I'm left eye dominant, but right-handed and only have limited budget! Plan is to start off with something cheaper and gentle, before upgrading to more 'fancy/Cadillac types)

    Suggestions from you: 'Starter' options that are readily available, accurate and easy to handle and operate. Link and pictures appreciated

    Location: Brockville, Ont - Gatineau/Ottawa corridor.

    Cheers

    You're about 4 months to late.

    You are going to have to make some friends at the range and use theirs.

    Handgun sales are banned now! Thank Trudeau and all Liberal NDP voters! Still want a handgun vote Conservative next election!

    In case you haven't heard, you can read about the handgun ban with grandfathering here: https://pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releas...arket-handguns It's basically impossible to buy, unless you're in an exempted group.

    I don't understand how someone who lives in a major metro like GTA, has a firearms licence, and on top of tat was planning to buy a handgun would not know this news. It's actually somewhat concerning, OP are you okay?

    I encourage all to sign up for CCFR newsletter or something like that, we need you to keep abreast of the news and fight alongside us in these important firearms rights battles!
