Looks like I'll be writing a letter. And I hate writing letters. $250 donation to the NFA + a membership tonight though. I know it's little, but every little bit helps.
I agree with Mr Bear. Join one or both... Just do something... Better than nothing! Be polite, respectful, and patient with non or anti's. Do your homework as to have intelligent, articulate & credible arguments. Everyone is threatened by this. If you hunting rifle types think it doesn't, well, you are mistaken. ALL guns came from military use first then adopted by sportsmen. Even black powder was at one time, state of the art military equipment. Your bolt action is no exception. If this goes unchallenged it will set a legal precedence. It is time to act, Canadians. Do not sit back and do nothing, I implore all to take a half hour of their lives and write letters. As I have just done. I also joined NFA with a modest donation I could afford.
Amen, firearms are to overthrow a corrupt government and replace it with something more in line with freedom and basic human rights, hunting and self defense are a bonus. That's why all the best battle proven rifles are the first to hit the "prohibited" list and the small pistols were axed because they've very good at getting rid of corrupt politicians that only listen to dollars over the voices of the people.

Is there a "Blanket" letter that some people can download and sign? This would make it easier as some struggle to write a letter and we need everyone to act on this!
Gun control is like trying to reduce Drunk Driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
Good day John;
People simply don't get it do they, we are not talking about firearms here, we are witnessing the authorities assuming the power to ban and seize private property which was legally purchased within the law of the day.
But then again the old timers like us have been preaching this for close to 50 years....
See you next week
John
We cannot use thought or attitude like this in our arguments people. Remember this is how the non-gun public perceives us; as paranoid, obtuse fanatics. Our rights or privileges to gun ownership will not be removed suddenly, but, eroded slowly at first. Then it would get ramped up. We just need to stop it right here, right now. Intelligently. We need to win over the non and anti gun public.
