BoyGlock Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Been lurking here for a few years now, posted a few replies (less than 10 iirc), didn't know that I need to introduce myself to you guys/gals. So, here I go. Im from the Philippines, where a gun ban is currently in effect due to upcoming national election. Said ban will end on June 9 this year, a month after the election. Been an IPSC shooter and a diligent student of the SPORT (its why am here) since 2003 when I was 43. Im very thankful to this forum and its members for the infos shared for the love of this sport. I, personally, benefited much from this. DVC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyGlock Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thanks everyone! Welcome! How often are your elections and do they impose a gun ban each time? Elections here are done every 3 years for national and also for local elections. these 2 are done separately. and yes, they impose it each time. in effect we have it every 1 1/2 yrs on average. For the national, its 5 mos. ban and for the local, its 3 mos. The sad part is that gun-related crimes always increase during gun bans here because lawless elements are bolder than usual knowing the law abiding citizens are virtually defenseless outside their homes. The govt here dont want to acknowledge that the ban are only effective on licensed fa's, never on loose fa's. In effect we, the licensed gun owners suffer most...not to mention its nuisance to us, IPSC shooters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
