Over the years of being a firearms enthusiast and activist, I’ve never actually purchased an AR platform rifle. That changed yesterday…

I think the main reason why I hadn’t was due to the obvious impracticality of owning an AR (and really any restricted firearm in Canada). You can’t take it anywhere except to your range, a gun smith, etc. Between moving multiple times, living in apartments, and being too busy with work to spend time at a range, I figured non-restricted firearms are the best use of my money. And I still do.
But really, with all the negative propaganda from the Libtards, now is the time to put my money where my mouth is.
The only cure for firearms ignorance is an increase in the number of law-abiding gun owners, and an increase in the number of theses ‘scary black rifles’ nationwide.

It seems that every time Turdeau, Tory-Dory, or another of the media-seeking attention-whores opens their mouth on gun bans, well the AR-15 supplies nation wide seem to dry up. It sure is sweet, sweet irony that Fidel Jr. has ended up being Canada’s best gun salesman ever. Now with the Covid-19 Corona Virus issue, and the again increased interest in firearms nationwide, I was very pleasantly surprised to see Bullseye had (when I looked) 20 of the Smith & Wesson M&P15 Sport II units in stock:

Yes there is a very legitimate future risk of bans. Whether that means confiscation, buybacks, grandfathering, or prohibition from using at all remains to be seen. But as an advocate I need to be a participant in the middle of this process.

I will write more on why I chose this as my entry level AR, my initial thoughts, and a review later. But perhaps my new purchase will help to convince me to get out the range more!
