Hey guys,
I'm a new member from Toronto. Just got a S&W MP9 in early April, luckily I was able to put 1200 rounds through it in the two days. Had a great time, no jams etc. I put only MFS 9mm FMJ 115g ammunition in it, and have realized at least for the present that reloading is not something I can realistically do (2 years left in Law school unfortunately
)
Up north, its not as easy to get a firearm -we have to go through some real BS to get them. Getting a license is a 2-4 months affair (with the certificates to transport them to the range)... Luckily I was able to find an amazing range near Niagara (on our side-the nicer side 
haha) and its outdoor so lots of space plus its not expensive at all.
Unfortunately I had to head back to the UK to finish up my exams (had a months break Easter+exam review until May) so I had to leave my new hobby back home for a month. But I was really happy with my MP9, I definitely preferred it to the feel of the Glock 17 and 22. I also tried other guns (I also really like the shot of a Para damn!) handguns/rifles. Luckily I was able to get my girlfriend interested-which if you are in a long-term relationship you'll understand the ever-lasting struggle for doing stuff together that is actually mutually enjoyable
hahaha She's gotten really good too, so all-in-all target shooting has been amazing!
I'm looking into my second gun purchase- and I'm thinking a smith and wesson 15-22 w/ compensator. I played around with it, and although its not a real rifle- I figured something cheap to shoot and easily useable by my chick would make this plinker a reasonable investment.
I have been able to find an abundance of advice from canadiangun nutz. com . I figured that if there was so much to offer from such a relatively small community, then looking down south for some friends/advice would be another gold mine Plus with our election going on, we are closely watching to see if our good old Conservatives win a majority. They are in comparison firearms friendly and are pushing to abolish the long gun registry (hopefully after they get rid of the 2-4month licensing system that takes 20 minutes at a shop in the States considering its basically just a criminal and mental records check.)
Anyways Hello to all , and if you have any advice about the 15-22 or about any upgrades for my MP9 I would sincerely appreciate it!
All the best
