Re: Cowboy action shooting
Pre 9-11 my fiancee at the time (now my wife) was coming across to Canada, one day she had troubles getting across because of sewing equipment and machines she had... The border guard (RCMP) said Looks more like your moving then just visiting...
You know how Quilters are! We laughed about her sewing and needles and how she would invade Canada with her needles and have us surrender our fabrics!
Since 9-11 I have seen many instances where as a Canadian i was looked at differently. This is just one of thos instances, An other club that is now closed (Bullseye) actually told me they would not have me as a member and I could not shoot in this Fine State. A letter to the ATF changed their minds about that. They where told they where not allowed to discriminate in any way towards a legal resident. Took 2 days for the managment there to "invite" me back. As long as i had an American Citizen there with me... I told them i was not rich enough for their club, price became an issue once we started looking around and found better, cheaper places to shoot. And that they where still discriminating.. They closed shortly after.
