How do you think those of us that live here permanently feel - pay here (civilian pay) is comparable to pay elsewhere in Canada (and generally less and less reliable than that in the CF), but my money doesn't buy what it would in Manitoba. The only place worse is Vancouver - where everything costs 10-20% (at least) more than here in Victoria.

The cost of living here in the GRVD is a nightmare, haha!
 
Now for the real Question, whats the price? If they are going to be maybe $150 I might be interested if I decide to sell my current AR and buy a Diemeco, assuming that includes hand guard, grip and stock. But if its over $200 you would just as well be better off with some OD Armalite options.

I was here 10 years ago and I owned a Condo. I should of kept it. The thing that phucks us the most is the postings. I left Greenwood in a bad market made no money on my house. DND doesn't give a sh!t about the housing market.

Every Time im posted it seems to be a bad market. I would of loved nothing more than staying here my whole career. Id have a sweet place to live by now...

But I love what I do, I get to travel the world and serve my country. So I live life and work extra to cover my hobby.

You can't get ownership of a colour. All of 'em are owned and operated by Mom Nature. In any case, it's still on a restricted rifle you can only use on a range.

Absolutely you can trademark a color. Mattel has that very particular pink color for Barbie. Tiffany's blue, the green on the Starbucks cups. If you had a similar product and used the same color, that's a passive trademark violation.

Thank you for your service and your financial among other personal sacrifices you have made for the Country.

I don't see any reason LE should get any priority. They carry black versions.

Does anyone know if there is any move to replace Elcan with a more modern optic, even by the same company?

CSOR is running Spectre DR, among various other optics.
 
I met my wife two postings ago, got married in Dec 2009 and was posted in July 2010. She is a teacher and has not had a full time teaching job since, barely getting substitute time. The Military don't give a dam if you lose money on your house even when you were posted to where there is no PMQ's or If your spouse has to give up a full time good paying job. Every week my wife says she hates how the Military treats it families. As for pay, my neice has been CBSA officer for 5 years and makes more than a Warrant Officer. I'm sorry but Colt Canada has priced these out of reach for the majority of Military shooters.
