Hi guys! I got my pal just after the long-gun registry got scrapped; so far I've collected an svt-40, Chinese SKS, ruger m77 in 7mm rem mag, ruger 10/22, savage mk2, winchester 94ae in 356, H&R single in 410, and a p.o.s pump 12ga to persuade the bears to leave. I'm an avid shooter but I figured that meeting others of a like mind wouldn't be a bad plan,so... "hi!"

Welcome to CGN, a great place to come for firearm technical info, legal info, and current events.
If you have a question that just can't wait for an answer, be sure to try the search function.

If you have any questions about the legal aspects of owning and using firearms, you'll find a good resource in the 'stickies' at the top of the list here:

As a new member, please do your best to represent the firearms community well. Here are a few things that often get a new guy into trouble: Not keeping the language clean, discussing illegal activities, and writing things which could reflect poorly on the community at large. Don't be offended if people are suspicious of you if you ask strange questions. It is not uncommon for antis (aka gun grabbers, aka the civil disarmament crowd) to cause trouble and stir up controversy on the forum. Sometimes the people here might confuse you for one of those people. Try to be forgiving of that because CGN has a lot to offer, whether you are a new shooter, or a veteran lead-slinger.
If you have a genuine interest in the rights of Canadian firearm owners, I'd encourage you to look into joining one or more of our national orgs. The two most popular are:
CSSA & NFA
With a little bit of research you will see just how much these orgs do to protect our rights. Not only that, but each offers insurance for legal firearm activities. Your money goes a long way to help the cause, but you would not believe how far having your name on the list goes in strengthening our position.
I'd also like to add this: The plight of the Canadian firearm community has been largely ignored by the Canadian media. About two years ago a new news network called http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca busted onto the scene.
The Sun News Network is a vocal advocate for our gun rights, so I urge you to do what you can to support them. Until the 27th of February, 2013, you can participate in an online petition to improve Sun's licence to 'mandatory carriage', meaning that they can be viewed on ALL basic cable packages.
Please take a moment to sign this petition: http://www.canadiantvfirst.ca.
Sun supports us, so please support them.
Once again, welcome. Shoot safe and have fun!
