Title: Bricktop, have you seen my latest acquisition?
Post by: Angry White Male on March 22, 2018, 03:06:30 AM
You mad, bro?  You Jelly?



Just because your Government has deemed your own peoples incapable of owning a variety of firearms for their own safety, is no reason for you to lash out in anger against me, utilizing fake news and innuendo!



Stay mad, no-guns!  BWAHAHAHAHAHA!



If you ever visit, I'll take you to the range.  I'll make sure I have some easy .38 rounds on hand, as your elderly wrists probably couldn't handle full load .357 Magnums anyhow.  I always try to accommodate, as I do for all peoples worldwide!

Can handgun owners in Canada use their weapons for protection?

If they do they will be charged with a crime. They are rarely convicted but you will bear the high cost of defending yourself.

You can use anything to defend yourself in Canada, including a gun.  Keibers is correct though...  be prepared to 'tell it to the judge.'  In some ways, our system isn't that much different than some US States.

I'll just let Wiki explain it:


QuoteAccording to the Criminal Code of Canada Sections 34 and 35, (which were updated in 2012 with the passage of bill C-26) force, up to and including lethal force may be used in defence of one's life or "peaceably" possessed property or the defence of another's life or "peaceably" possessed property, and is not considered an offence so long as the person believes that force is being used against them in the case of self-defence, that someone is about to or has broken into or damaged property in the case of defence of property, that they are acting in defence of themselves, someone else or "peaceably" possessed property, and that the act is reasonable in the circumstances. The criminal code also lays out the factors in either case that will be used to determine what constitutes "reasonable given the circumstances". The changes made by the government were to clarify the laws involving self-defence and defence of property, and to help legal professionals to apply the law as believed to reflect the values Canadians hold to be acceptable.

There are entities like the "Canadian Coalition for Firearms Rights" that do offer insurance packages that cover Attorney fees should you face trial for your actions.



I don't know what this insurance costs, and don't know of anyone that has it.



The best solution is to simply try to avoid confronting anyone using any weapon, be it a gun, a knife, or a baseball bat, unless you are absolutely sure that your actions are justifiable.



To use lethal defense to protect your outside property, while technically legal, is somewhat borderline in my opinion...  On the flipside, an intruder that has gained entry to your home and is clearly acting aggressively and won't retreat?  Fill him with holes, and in this scenario you may not have that many legal headaches.

Thats awesome! I had looked at a conceal carry version similar to that years ago, that would carry both those type of rounds. Couldnt do magnum .357 in it though.

Gotta be careful when choosing something small and light for concealed carry (something that we can't do here), as those small frame revolvers would have a brutal recoil with .357 Magnum rounds, especially if it's one of those light weight alloy frame guns!  Then again, any .357 Magnum gun will also chamber .38 Specials.



Even this thing has quite a kick!



A good .38 +P defense round would be easy to handle in those though!

So you admit you've acquired this gun as a weapon.

Not sure how you came up with that, from a statement that warns .357 Magnum rounds out of a light alloy J-Frame revolver would have brutal recoil...

Bricktop, what kind of gun did you use when you were a policeman?

In the 70's we had Browning 38 semi auto's, because we had to conceal the firearm and it was compact.



Then we switched to S&W .357 Magnums. I believe they use Glocks now.

Post by: Angry White Male on March 23, 2018, 11:26:27 PM
It does appear that Territories are free to select their sidearms of choice, but Glocks in .40cal S&W seem to be the 'go-to' sidearm there.  Particularly Glock Models 22, 23, and 27.



Vancouver Police used to be issued .40cal Glocks too, I believe, but I think they recently switched to SIG Sauer P226 (9mil).



And the good old RCMP still carries the old steel framed S&W 5946 steel framed pistol in 9mil!



Some other municipal forces here use the .40cal Glocks also.

My first pistol was a cheapy Taurus compact semi auto (in 9mm). Fired true enough, and the price was right at the time. Paid 150 for it secondhand. Sold it for 800 later on. Lol

Oh I know, and you right on the recoil, also that .38 +P is what is needed. One of the conceal revolvers I liked the most was a S&W .38 special ultra light, made out of titanium. Its also hammerless, so the hammer doesnt snag. Small and light.

For one with a clip, my dad's seemed pretty good, and Im gonna ask what my step mom wants for it one day, a .380, but cant remember if Ruger or S&W.





I honestly dont like the idea of conceal carry much, so for now, if I choose to, Im gonna open carry.



Black guy tried to rob my son a few weeks ago, so I handed down a family .32 to him this week. It was my first, and he has experience with it. How he got out of being robbed, was telling him the money was in his car, and he hopped in and took off lol.

My favorite  :thumbup:



I believe the .32 I have was a model officers used in the 60s. It takes .32 longs.

Post by: Bricktop on March 24, 2018, 07:26:14 PM
We never had .32's.



Had .22's for undercover work...probably to scare potential attackers with a loud bang.

Yes!  For something small and alloy like that, also know that .357 Magnum full house rounds can cause undercutting to the bottom of the top strap!



The hot pressure blows out of the gap between cylinder and forcing cone so fierce, that it can actually etch the frame!  Usually seen on alloy revolvers throwing out light defense boolits with a hot charge!



Then again, all problems avoided if running .38 +P!  Easy to shoot, limited recoil, and won't wreck the gun!
