Exams 2/3 October. Application Online 24 Sep (Yes, I put the cart before the horse. Not only did I send in my application before my test results but before my tests.)
My license issued today (yesterday, Monday 29th actually.) I should be getting that precious piece of plastic in a week or so.
They (RCMP) told me to panic at the two-week mark.
Well I bought a GSG from Dlask with a trigger job very nice still need to field test it. I'm also still getting a 1911 conversion kit to add to my shooting kit.
I have a Browning Buckmark Camper which I am very happy with for .22LR (Blazer Bulk or American Eagle) but after 5 months shooting it I am tempted by a real Colt 1911 Anniversary Edition .45ACP. Any dealers taking orders???
Browning and Colt came up with the 1911 that is why I bought the Buckmark, to get used to the Autoloader pistol..... also it is cheap to shoot. If I get a 1911 I will have to save up to go to the range or get in to reloading. I reload at the range now with Black Powder revolvers (Colt Reproductions) and shoot .44 cal and .36 cal at reasonable cost but even these cost a lot more than .22LR. A percussion cap costs more than .22LR (about 7 cents) then you have powder (about 6.5 cents) and a ball or bullet (about 9 cents) a bit of Crisco (<1cent) so that works out to about 23 cents per round.

Without any feelings (Dlask or Gunnar)
I have heard nothing but good about these two organizations/gentlemen.
They're both offering the GSG 1911 .22cal LR for the same price.
They will both do the trigger adjustment down to 3-4 lbs for a very similar price $60-65. They're both in B.C. Both their GSGs 1911 come with the steel barrel bushing. Both GSGs come with adjustable rearsights.
If both are as nice a people as have been described on various threads I might have to resort to flipping a coin. I certainly do NOT want to start a bidding war for my business; it's only ONE GSG 1911 that I'm considering.. It it were up to me, at this very moment I'd flip a coin and place an order (with 3.5 to 4 lbs trigger job) right now.
I hope I get enough positive (and negative, if any) feedback to make up my mind.
My RPAL was issued yesterday and I'm waiting for the mailman.
The CFO(Ontario) has agreed to issue (when the time comes) ST-ATTs from my place of work to home. The one thing I do not want is Canada Post leaving a parcel in front of my apartment door which is right next to the elevators on my floor and where I've had a couple of [supposedly] signed for parcels (thankfully books) disappear.
Gun cases, gunsafe (bolted to wall), trigger locks, padlocks have all been purchased and are waiting,
So, will fellow CGNers help me flip that coin? (Sorry, I can't afford to buy one from each.) I won't start an official poll. Whoever does not want his personal recommendation kept private, is welcome to pm me.
Good night

Well I just bought a GSG last week and I was about to drop more cash on the Kimber .22 conversion kit as well. but then it just hit me.....
why buy a kimber kit when I could buy another GSG for an extra $30 bucks. So no more conversion kit for me.

I was at Epps today and was told they didn't have any more of the Classic .22s - I ended up walking out with a .22lr conversion kit for my P226. It's a nice unit, the whole gun is worth the $$ if you're into SIGs
