Exclamation Changes to the Explosive Act, May 22/24




Essentially you need a valid PAL to purchase smokeless and black powder as well as “ tannerite”.

There’s a max volume for black powder purchase too (25kg)


I got this clip off of the LFGA FB page, the same is posted on CGN…..

No surprise, the Royal gestapo wanted this for years. We all know ottawa is coming after ammunition next.

Won’t be long there will be powder purchase limits. Then ammo purchase limits. Then bans on reloading supplies.

If you want it, pay the prices and put it in your safe today. Tomorrow is no guarantee.

How does NrCan have any ties with the GRC?

The driver is Uncle Georg, and Uncle Claus and their marionettes within the LPC.


With that aside.

I reload for 5 others in my family and for myself, if limits come it will have zero effect on myself, or them……… figure this out amongst your own circle of influence.

Ottawa is Ottawa. There is no separation of powers in kanuckistan

Thanks for the heads up though. Gotta keep on top of the supply issues

Proof positive of how dumb the bureaucracy is.

And how are they going to enforce the mixing of multiple reactive targets? Next thing we'll have to go get a permit showing date and location of where it's intended to be used. ....Sigh

I've seen some pretty dumb stuff with huge amounts of tannerite on youtube, but you can't fix stupid. As always, make more stupid rules for people that already use products in a safe manner. The idiots won't care anyways.

It's too nice out. I gotta get off the computer and do some BBQ'ing and enjoy the sunshine. Reading this stuff just gets me in a bad mood and I know better!
