When is Enough Enough

 Well I`m done, the only legal army style rifles in my collection are Lee Enfilds everything else with the exception of M1 Garanads and anything that remotely looks like one oh and Norwegian AK47`s and  SKS`s are left. And Those are soon to be gone.

 I`m now the proud owner of $25K of scrap metal.

 When is Trump taking over Canada?, certainly not holding out any hope of anybody putting Canada back to where it should be, not even PP leader of the pretty much useless Conservatives. They certainly don`t have what it takes to topple this current gov`t. That`s been proven a few times already.

 And if the Libs thinks this is making Canada safer their more stupid than anyone can give them credit for. When you`re talking 10`s of thousands of dollars worth of personal property, how many think people will just walk away from that kind of investment before it`s too late. There will be no buy back for the average Joe, just search warrants, confiscation and arrests.

 The Canadian legal criminals will be on the streets with premo firearms.

Gil.

My guess it was used for target practice, she looks pretty derelict. Mighty big grenade, no torpedo trail, struck at the water line or just demolition. No4 mk1 grenade launcher?? lob `em in....

Am I close???

It was a Greek freighter that had an on-board fire. The crew couldn't contain it & so ran for land & dropped anchor to prevent it drifting onto the shore. Then abandoned it.

It was abandoned for some time off the entrance-way to Bridgetown Barbados.

Its cargo was dubious & poorly stored.

The decision was eventually made to sink it as an artificial reef. at 13.8 N, 59.38 W

I was on The "Cunard Countess" in port there the day she was scuttled.

Yes.  The Texas State legislature passed 'Constitutional Carry' in 2021 which removed the requirement to have a state issued license to carry a handgun, further, they expanded the 'Castle Doctrine' from just your home or vehicle to anywhere you have the legal right to be.  Some years ago Texas passed a law preventing companies from banning employees from keeping their legally owned firearms in their vehicles on company property.  Lastly, and somewhat related Texas lowered the legal bar to using lethal force when defending yourself after dark.  

Honk, just the mere mention of Alan Rock gets my blood pressure up!  There was a time in Canada when we were pretty much left alone to enjoy our guns. Sure, Full Auto ownership was grandfathered in in the Seventies but just about everything else was wide open.  I bought a semi auto U.S. Rifle M14 and enjoyed it at shooting competitions as well as taking it on several hunting trips.  Its ownership and use wasn't restricted at all so long as you had an FAC.  The gubmint couldn't stand seeing so many happy citizens enjoying their sport so they placed many firearms on the Restricted list, my M14 being one of them.  No more hunting trips with the rifle but at least I could still take it to the range, right?  Well, can't have citizens having fun with firearms, the gubmint thought so they went even further and placed many Restricted firearms on the Prohibited list, M14s included so now my rifle became a safe queen.  Canada is safe the Libs proclaimed!  Uh-Oh!  Is that a 10 round magazine on that rifle?

The gubmint may not have kicked in any doors but they did outright ban ownership of many firearms for any class of collector back in the Eighties, no grandfathering of any sort most notable being the USAS 12, Striker 12, Spas 12 and LAW 12 all being shotguns and the G3 rifle.
