Ever wonder that if any psycho couldn't walk into a walmart and buy a couple guns and a few hundred rounds of ammo you wouldn't need to have a s&w 500 or an assault rifle loaded under the bed for 'protection'?. I think alot of hoer countries should take a look at Canada's gun laws and look at the gun related crimes in this country before they say anything. Yes you could own an automatic assault rifle with a 100 round clip. A bit over kill for some standard 'home defense'. If you feel your life's in danger call the cops that's what they get paid for.
