So sorry for breaking your fake post that has now been discredited along with yourself,pretty sad reflection on the gun lobby that they measure mass shootings as a standard.No evidence the fallen officer was armed with an AR.
So that means that the AR (or any of it's variants) has never been used in a mass shooting in Canada. I hope you are keeping in shape buddy because Sherway Gardens will be open soon and filled to the brim with Citiots.

In 1982, Saskatoon police shot 18-year-old hostage-taker Richard Landrie after a lengthy standoff. Landrie was dressed in battle fatigues and armed with an AR-15. He fired 50 rounds during the standoff, shooting off one of his hostage’s fingers.
Media reports also indicate that AR-15s have been seized in several drug raids, taken from alleged bank robbers in British Columbia,

“Two shooters killed LeClair shortly after he got into the driver’s seat of his truck and tried to get away,” Dillon said.
A handgun and an AR-15 were left at the scene “along with a black duffle bag from which the machine gunman had removed the AR-15,” Dillon said.

We are referring to MASS SHOOTING - where 4 or more people have been killed with no cooling off period.
......shooting off someone's finger does not qualify. That can be done with any firearm and is in no way tied to the AR's characteristics as a firearm.

More fingers have been lost to power saws. We don't see the Liberals wanting to ban them,do we? Oh,wait,we shouldn't give the village idiots any more dumb ideas.

Yeah keep moving those goal posts. It started with the ARs not being used in a criminal offence ever. When that was proven wrong it's now mass shootings.
Not sure why people are losing their poop about the AR on a hunting site. It's a restricted rifle and you can't hunt with it anyway.

Liberal Party declared on its campaign website. “Canada’s current system of marijuana prohibition does not work. It does not prevent young people from using marijuana and too many Canadians end up with criminal records for possessing small amounts of the drug.
Wont work with gun ban either

So what if the next mass shooter uses a pump shotgun or a lever rifle, should we ban them too? Look at the big picture here it's not about public safety. When they ban your goose gun or hunting rifle you think people will care about you or your guns just like you dont care about AR rifles?.

We all know or can reasonably assume why shotguns aren’t used more in the states. If people think packed theatre's, Classrooms etc are horrific if an AR is used. Shotguns would be truly horrific. Especially if slugs are used. Up here, 5 in a tube, or magazine. No real difference, except to flesh bones and organs....
Not “gun nut” enough to know off hand what the energy differences are between a .223 and 3 inch shell with slugs or heavy shot. But I’m thinking nightmarish.
But it is what it is. Things her in Canada are typically all about emotion, and rarely about grey matter or empirical data, Unless of coarse the latter suits the liberals at certain times.

The forum is called Firearms and Ammo....and a lot of guys on here are sport shooters that own and shoot restricted firearms.

How many lives have been destroyed by alcohol in comparison to the AR15’s owned by licensed shooters?
I’m suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog who doesn't like a person.
