Good afternoon folks,

This community has been around for quite some time on Lemmy, a little over a year and half if i recall correctly with the initial intention of being the next /r/CanadaGuns, the first post made was of my 20" Mossberg 590A1 and (now prohibited) .22Lr Kriss Vector which then divulged into semi-regular news postings from myself, i can only think of a very small handful of posts that didn't come from me.

Nonetheless i had gotten burnt out as i constantly had my head in the political aspect of our sport and hobby, which is why i introduced /u/Canadian_[email protected] to keep this community active and to which if i recall correctly lasted about 24 hours before being banned by the instance admins.

That had immediately prompted the self-hoster in me to spin up a Lemmy instance of my own, throw it behind my reverse-proxy, slap Anubis onto it and begin federating with the intention of not being the next /r/CanadaGuns but to simply be the federated news source for folks with their Firearms Licenses in Canada.

I am more than willing to appoint another moderator who wishes to continue regular posts here, i shall post here only if the news effects licensed firearms owners as a whole but for now have locked this community to moderator only posts as i cannot put my focus into two communities that serve the same purpose.

Apologies if this has been an inconvenience for some.

Please reach out to /u/[email protected] for any questions, concerns or suggestions.

Thanks for reading.
