Absolutely. Airsoft in Canada has always been fairly restricted anyway from what I gather. Stuff like only certain people/companies able to import, massively inflated prices compared to the US. Seems like it's been on thin ice for a while.
And yeah, I think it's perfectly understandable for people to question infringements on the second amendment. You might come across as a gun nut to a normie but it's only logical to see where it's heading. A little restriction here, this thing banned there. Oh, you need to register that. Oh, now we have a register, you have to surrender all of these types of firearms and we know where they all (well, some of) are...
What I find astounding is the gun control is done in such a bizzare manner like the "features" of the AWB. Like pistol grips, bayonet mounts lol. What relevance do these have...The fact stuff is banned based on how scary it looks, regardless if it operates in exactly the same way as something else that is OK because it has wood furniture for example. And the fact the democrats want another AWB when the first one sunset because it was proven it was irrelevant. "High capacity" mags vilified but 10 rounders are fine. I'm sure the average airsofter could change mags in a second or so...
Do I think everyone should be allowed to run around with full auto MP5s with 50 round mags? No, but there needs to be some actual "common sense gun control". If I had any say in things, I'd just put stupidly massive sentencing on committing crimes with a firearm/knife. Mug someone with a firearm? 50 years in prison. All assets stripped and put towards the costs for you incarceration etc. So many POS people commit crimes with firearms as they don't fear the consequences. Just make it not worth it for them. Who's going to commit an armed home invasion when they're looking at the possibility of seeing out most of their life in prison? Of course this doesn't account for nutters wanting infamy after going on a killing spree and not caring about suicide by police or at their own hands. Though the media has been told time and time again what part they play in such events and they refuse to take the advice. They crave mass killings as they bring in so many clicks...
