By high school they should have a level 2 training.

Be able to identify most common firearms and clear them for inspection.

I agree with that

@garonedin CMP garand? Nice. What condition? When I start my new job I want to get one in service grade condition

Yeah, Service Grade.

Cool

CMP sells M1911s too but they cost more than the garands and from what i've heard have had spotty condition

Best part is; I can in theory get it and just start shooting
because I got like... 200 rounds of Ethiopian Surplus fuddy aught six on en bloc clips

It came on the clips?

yes

in bandolier belts

in an m1 ammo can

all

Very nice

for roughly $200

Oof

That's actually fairly good for non-corrosive surplus, plus clips, plus ammo can

M1 garands are expensive to feed, when i get mine i probably wont shoot it much but it's a good collector piece

You also have to get garand safe ammo or an adjustable gas plug for modern loads

But yours is surplus so it should be safe

yeah, loaded to m2 ball specs

the next purchase is kinda a toss up between a ported gas plug or a slant flash can for my AR-15 to make it look like a las-gun

I got into guns recently so i'm trying to build up my collection, get milsurp, "assault weapons", and "high capacity" magazines first

The status of milsurp in this country sucks, damn import laws

yeah.
I kinda got my collection mostly filled out. Couple of ARs, Beginner Rifles, a couple of Milsurps

Canadians can get russian SKSes for $300 cad and buy norinco guns, russian SKSes in the US are $600-700

THough now that I think about
I lack Auto-loading shotguns, any handguns, any precision rifles, any pistol caliber carbines

yeah

Canadians get all the fun surplus russian stuff now

Canada has great import laws, unfortunately limited to 5 round mags on semi auto rifles though

at least for cheap

yeah, though I think m1 garands are an exception

because canadian designed

I have a budget ar, a t/cr22(10/22 clone), and a mosin nagant carbine(m38)

The mosin is my favorite gun i've shot, and i've tried out a lot of other people's guns

I know my canadian friend has a C1A1 (FAL) somewhere in Alberta I believe

Ah he must have a restricted license

Shitty thing about canada right now is that there's a push there to ban handguns and "assault weapons" after some guy went on a mass shooting and killed 5 people with an illegally smuggled handgun from the US

What's the Canadian NFA really up to these days?

NFA?

I know they're not as well known as the NRA
