Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before
Colt Canada Denies Involvement in Confiscation Scheme [More]
I’ll bet he gets a lot more reads than the source. I suppose a link would have killed him. You know, kind of like the same courtesy that gets regularly extended here…
And for the record, they denied involvement in the buyback scheme and said nothing about confiscation. Whether the claim is valid or invalid has not been definitively established.
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?
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.
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:
Why Won’t You Hosers Disarm, Eh?
The Canadian gov has allocated almost $100k to a nationwide survey asking gun owners why they are not complying with the ongoing, failed, mandatory gun buyback. [More]
A point I don’t see being made here: Answering seems like a great way to incriminate yourself. Do they guarantee they won’t trace responses back and use them to establish probable cause? And why would you believe people who demand your guns?

Sorry, Neighbors, They Wanted My Guns That Badly
Genocide-minded maniacs never seem to flesh that out.
The vacuous smirker’s somehow got a million followers, but from the ratioing this latest bit of idiocy received, I suspect they’re mostly people hes trolling. As for the post he started with, imagining mass gun confiscation, as noted before, the truth is they wouldn’t dare. Which means the Second Amendment is working (right you are, Nicholas).
There’s one other thing he’s forgetting, besides the obvious (NSFW): Bill Clinton’s Rules of Engagement. If we can’t turn to the Constitution for protection, what makes cheerleaders for tyranny think they can?
‘Wrong-Thinking is Punishable’
These types of anti-government beliefs, according to the New Zealand newspaper Waikato Times, violate the “fit and proper person” clause as defined by New Zealand law, which is a requirement for anyone who applies for or possesses a firearm license. The New Zealanders who allegedly harbored anti-government views were discovered though a national intelligence operation known as “Operation Belfast,” which targeted ordinary citizens and was orchestrated by New Zealand police.

Hey, they’re “just following orders.”
The fact that you want a gun to protect your sovereignty is all the proof we bneed to keep you from having one.
Besides, what sovereignty?

Fill Out Forms, You’re on the List
“We have a lot of databases. We have the CBI records checks that we already check. We have your concealed weapons permits… so I don’t know that we are looking at some newfangled database specifically to create something to identify who has a gun. We have that. That exists… so, do you guys really think that the ultimate outcome for this is for us to track you? [More]
No, that’s not the ultimate outcome.
And you’ll notice where that vision starts to get blurry…

Location, Location, Location!
Received via email from WarOnGuns Correspondent Wynn A:
The sentiment of gun owners seems to be if it isn’t ‘registered’ the powers that be don’t know about it. Fools errand. As witnessed with Katrina the goons will go door to door and forcibly search all buildings. The citizens of New Orleans went along with this outlandish conduct. Will today’s Americans do the same?
By the time they’re at your door, it’s too late.
Depending on the area, I have a feeling that if this starts in any significant numbers, many confiscators will end up more concerned about what’s coming to their door.
Never Forget
“Only following orders” — this is why the authoritarians are so determined to smear and destroy the concept of Oath Keepers and Three Percenters.
Been a while since I’ve seen these clips. The thought strikes: Whatever became of excuse-making JBTs-by-their-actions Fred Bible and Chris Montgomery?
The thought also strikes in all this time I’ve never seen one “commonsense gun safety advocate” condemn this tyranny.
“Few bad apples” my … eye. Every damn one of them. And remember, all good “conservatives” say “Back the Blue!”

We’re the Only Ones Confiscating Enough
In a letter provided to AmmoLand News from Gun Owners of America (GOA), dated August 31, 2022, Inspector Hugh Bogle of the New York Police Department (NYPD) informed business owners with an active business, limited carry, special carry, or carry business license that their business might now be in a “sensitive area” and were informed to bring their guns to the police station so that the guns can be “safeguarded,” or remove them from the location. [More]
What does registration lead to again…?
But no one’s talking about taking your guns, you paranoids!
Without a Trace
Boxes of paper records fill nearly every corridor of the ATF’s National Tracing Center, where agents are struggling to keep up with surging requests from local police. [More]
Still singing the same old song…
What they want, of course, is a national registry database traceable to legal purchasers that will by design exclude the illegal ones. Who but a deplorable hate-filled racist Nazi white supremacist could be against that?

With Friends Like These
If this terrible legislation becomes law, our friends at the National Rifle Association point out tens of millions of law-abiding gun owners would be turned into felons and their lawfully-acquired property would be subject to confiscation by federal agents. [More]
And “our friends at the National Rifle Association” would advise compliance:
“Bill did what any honest, law-abiding American would do…he turned in his SKS Sporter to the police.”
