Rendering Unto CZ

Question received via email:

Can you corroborate this claim against CZ?

That would be this claim, that their Colt Canada property will be doing the government’s dirty work destroying guns confiscated in the mandatory “buy back.”

I could not find anything but allegations on X.com, by some credible people, but nonetheless uncorroborated. And the Colt Canada feed is taking some incoming, but so far they’re keeping mum.

I put the question to Google AI, which itself raises caveats about accuracy, but is nonetheless more than we’ve got so far: Is Colt Canada / CZ working with the Canadian government to destroy surrendered firearms?

Here’s its answer:

Reports and online posts indicate that Colt Canada, a subsidiary of CZ, is an “external service provider” potentially involved in the testing phase for the destruction of firearms in the Canadian government’s buyback program. However, official government and company statements do not explicitly confirm this specific detail.

Then there’s this:

Yes, Colt Canada is the main and sole supplier of small arms, such as the C7 rifle and C8 carbine, to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and is the Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s (RCMP) largest supplier of firearms, acting as the Canadian government’s “Centre of Excellence” for small arms under the Munitions Supply Program.

So, we have means, motive and opportunity.

And secrecy, with incentive to keep quiet:

Colt Canada’s capacity: Colt Canada has the capacity and security licensing to handle prohibited firearms, which makes it a potential candidate for such a contract. A recent YouTube video speculated about Colt Canada’s involvement but offered no evidence of a contract.
Government secrecy: The government has indicated it would apply measures to protect the identity of vendors to “ensure vendors do not face reprisals or retaliation”. This means any contract awarded, particularly for a controversial initiative like the gun buyback program, may not be publicly announced in a prominent way.

It would seem we have a preponderance of evidence, but guilt is not beyond a reasonable doubt. Here’s where that leave us:

It’s time for Colt Canada to address this. And at this point, even if they pull out and p!$$ off their masters, the damage has been done.

UPDATE

Their unwillingness to address this speaks volumes.  This is the latest I’ve been able to find from a credible source, and he makes some good points:

Vajayjay for Virginia

Virginia’s Democratic attorney general nominee dodged possible jail time for driving 116 mph by logging 1,000 hours of community service — half with his own political action committee and the rest with the NAACP — after repeated court delays, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital. [More]

So… basically he was ordered to campaign for himself…?

Anybody give him a breathalyzer test?

Look at these grinning useful idiot sows and gelding, who don’t give a damn how dangerous and corrupt his personal behavior was as long as he promises to disarm men they could never hope to have.

This is what Virginians are going to get if gun owners and gun groups don’t step up to the plate.

Governor Walz, DFL Leaders Release Proposal for Special Session on Guns, School Safety [More]

Here’s what they’re going for this time:

a. Assault weapons and high-capacity magazines ban b. Binary trigger ban c. Eliminate the ghost gun loophole d. Strengthen Extreme Risk Protection Orders, including increased funding for public outreach and education e. Expand school safety funding f. Increase funding for mental health treatment g. Strengthen prohibitions against domestic abusers to ensure they do not have access to firearms (HF 391) h. Increase criminal penalties for violent offenses committed with a firearm and increase criminal penalties for impersonating a police officer i. Increase funding to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension’s Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management Team

And no, of course that won’t be all once they get these passed.

Just ask Omar.

And just to drive the point home:

The Latest Mood Swing

The Department of Justice under Attorney General Pam Bondi has continued to attack Missouri’s Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA), treating it much the same way the Biden administration did. That decision is striking, because it puts Bondi’s DOJ at odds with both the text of the Constitution and President Trump’s own executive order directing agencies to protect Second Amendment rights.

[More]

Skirt protections,” eh?

There’s nothing “novel’ about being Democrat punks who continue to harass even though they know this spits on the face of the SCOTUS-held text, history, and tradition standard. They know they have unlimited tax plunder resources and can drag private plaintiff efforts and expenses on for years, all with impunity, that is, no personal repercussions.

To them it’s a game of “Gotcha!”

Some of us aren’t playing.

When the Spirits Move

A yelling match between Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., and a former Biden administration official broke out in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing over the need for “two spirit” safe spaces to combat gun violence…. “What’s two spirit?” Hawley asked. In response, Jackson said, “Well, I don’t know exactly.” [More]

From the people who spooked the ignorant over “ghost guns”…

Such incompetent children operate on pure magical thinking. Powers that be embed such useful idiots into positions of influence so, like mindless Judas goats, they can lead the bleating herd to wherever they want it to go.

This was the DEI retard Biden picked to “advise” his Anti-2A Task force. Curious the “pro-gun” Trump administration won’t pick a few non-retards to keep its counter effort apprised of gun voter sentiment — and that no “gun group” is asking him to.

We’re the Only Ones Delighting Enough

The permissibility of weapon-mounted lights (WMLs) and red dot sights on a concealed carry weapon (CCW) in California is determined by individual county sheriffs. Recently, some sheriffs have begun restricting or banning these accessories, with Contra Costa County being a prominent example. These county-specific decisions have made the rules for carrying accessories complex and variable across California. [More]

The impossibility of navigating through a patchwork quilt is the whole point, don’t you think?

And is anyone still clinging to the “Sheriffs are good/police chiefs are bad” fallacy?

The Volunteer Loophole

The church says trained volunteers follow Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms guidelines to make three specific cuts to the firearm to make it no longer legally a gun. There is no transfer of ownership while the gun is still a gun, the church says. The owner must wait on the property for the process to be completed. The owner can either take the parts or donate them to be forged into garden tools. [More]

There are still other questions

And the volunteers have all had background checks to make sure they’re not prohibited from touching the guns? And training to make sure they’re really unloaded?

It’s the Latest!

SB 243 is now in effect. The bill bans specialty accessories like “binary” and “forced reset” triggers and bump stocks. It also allows any government entity to place its property off-limits to concealed handgun license holders. [More]

So, the Democrats will be satisfied now and stop any further attacks…?

Know Your Enemy

The businesses listed below have Anti-Gun policies and many work actively to subvert your personal safety and civil rights. [More]

I didn’t see any there that couldn’t easily be boycotted or substituted for.

Unfortunately, don’t expect most gun owners to care enough to do anything about it, including expanding the list when new anti-gun businesses are found, notifying fellow gun owners, or doing something so simple as challenging businesses publicly on their social media feeds with this:

Yeah, I know, they “won’t do social media.” Or view it as advocacy media, another tool in the kit, another chair in the bar fight

Or do much of anything else

Who’s “our” real enemy, again?
