And lining those aisles were the coolest guns and gear. Some of which comes from Canada.
Like Vancouver, B.C.'s Arc'teryx, which this year launched its Alpha Gen 2 line of outer gear for military and law enforcement agencies. It's celebrating 10 years of its LEAF line for law enforcement and armed forces personnel.
And some of the world's most accurate, and most affordable rimfire rifles are made by Savage Arms at its plant in Lakefield, Ontario.
Med-Eng, from Pembroke, Ontario, keeps military personnel safe with their industry leading bomb protection suit, which you can see in the movie "The Hurt Locker."
And Kitchener, Ontario's Excalibur unleashed its new Matrix Mega crossbow this year. It fires an arrow at a blistering 405 feet per second -- the fastest in the world!
The new SWORD -- Solider Weapon & Observer Reconnaissance Device -- from Colt Canada will revolutionize information sharing on the battlefield, linking smartphone technology to the solider, his gun and his commander for real time decision making and target identification.
This year's SHOT Show, the 35th annual, was the biggest ever and its not surprising the show continues to grow given the strength of the industry. Year after year, gun manufacturers are posting record profits, and dealers -- in the U.S., anyway -- can't stock ammunition fast enough before it flies off the shelves.
That's obviously great news for manufacturers, but also for gun enthusiasts because it means next year's SHOT show will be even bigger.
And Sun News will be there.
Be nice if they had the same (or even 1/10th) respect for the other amendments.
Which ones would those be ?Be nice if they had the same (or even 1/10th) respect for the other amendments.
How 'bout the First, Fourth, and Fifth for starters?Which ones would those be ?
The "they" who are the subject of the thread. Difficult concept, I know, but do your best.And which they are you talking about ?
Not sure what that has to do with the Bill of Rights, particularly the Second Amendment, but don't let that stop you.Maybe the DOJ and Fast and Furious .
OK, I DO know what that has to do with the Bill of Rights and the Second Amendment. The square root of sweet f*ck-all, that's what.Maybe the President circumventing congress and signing laws by fiat .
Yeah, that was a total violation of the Second Amendment!Maybe changing the terms of Obamacare after it was signed into law.
You missed them all. But you got in your hysterical anti-Obama shriek, so you probably feel better now.Am I missing any ?

Why don't you just make that rant your sig line? Save time and effort, which you could then use to, and I quote "Quit changin' the subject and answer the fockin' question."
Yeah, actually you do. Anybody who brings hate to his politics is pretty much an hysteric by definition.You don't have to be hysterical to hate Obama.
And neither did the previous guy, or the one before that, or the one before that. But you pick who you wanna hate, and scream away. Especially when it has absolutely nothing to do with the topic.......all you need to do is actually appreciate the separation of powers, due process, openess, the Constitution, and competence.....none of which Obama either possesses or understands.
Not too fond of him myself. But since I live here, and have some reasonably warm feelings about the country, wouldn't make much sense for me to indulge in hatred and hysteria.The worst President since ........well, EVER.
