Just got my PAL/RPAL in the mail!
Any suggestions for a first handgun to buy?
the price on those have gone up like crazy over the last couple years. i think 4 yrs ago the SP-01 was on sale at Flhertys for $650.. now they are $900, and ive seen the Shadow line listed for $1299 at some other shops. they also use to come with 3 mags and now its just 2...additional mags are $60 a pop..CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow or Shadow Line.. Excellent piece of Czech steel. Gives you the best bang for the buck hands down.

Even at $900 it's still a bargain... 2 years ago, a shadow was $800, but that was when our dollar was 1:1 with the US dollar, so they didn't go up that far. You can get Tanfoglio mags in the $45 range (they run PERFECTLY in my Shadow) and I think there are some Israeli mags (Elander?) that are in the 30-something range and well-reviewed. Still the best bang for the buck. If you wanna cheap out, you can go for an M&P range kit. Good gun but doesn't come close to the Shadow.

well, I would say it's a step in the right direction. I'm not sure how a lot of extra paperwork for law-abiding citizens (aka, without C-42), and the RCMP does anything tangible towards reducing gun violence.
Actually, I'd love to get a black powder cannon (little one) while I wait 5-ever for my PAL stuff to go through.
Speaking of guns, anyone been watching the Bill C-42 debates closely? Some very good legislation for gun owners. 3rd reading is in about 20 minutes in the house of commons.
BTW, it appears as though C-42 has passed house of commons, and is going to the senate next.
