Have you used either of those?              I haven't but there are many in Canada who use black powder and Bows.               DS> And those other people you mention often have semi-automatic weapons        DS> slung over their shoulders. Do you see a use for civilians having such        DS> weapons, e.g. AR15?              I have not seen that in Canada. Handguns are not popular in Canada. They do       exist here but not in large numbers. There is a large numbers of long guns       here of the kind used when hunting, from .22 calibre to 30-30 for the most       part.              I have not seen an AR15 in my travels. I think they do exist here but people       don't take them out of their home.              The AR15 and military style weapons are banned in Canada since someone in Nova       Scotia went on a shooting spree last year, killing 22 people.              I don't think the AR15 or military weapons have any place in society today.       Those weapons are designed to kill people so it's no surprise that's what       people use them for.              In an active war zone maybe, but not on the streets of our cities.               Ttyl :-),        Al              ...
