Do I Support CGN?

Last year I sold a Viper Sight to a customer in Manitoba.  At this point in time, the sights were brand new and I had only sold 8 locally.  They were so new, in fact, that I had not sent an advertising mail out.  This person was turned on to the Viper sight from someone who purchased one of the 8 first sights.  It performed exactly as advertised and the person was ecstatic that it worked so well.  It was clear, bright and held up to the shock of his SKS.  He went on CGN to spread the news about how happy he was.  By the time the CGN thread started to die out, the CGN population had him convinced that I had somehow cheated him.  These people, who never used my optic, slandered me and my product using fallacious reasoning.  According to them, the only reputable dealers are ones that support CGN.

And that is the crux of the issue.  CGN is the NTOA of Canada.  You pay protection money to keep people quiet which in turn supports a forum whose purpose seems to be to extort more money from firearms business and crap all over those who refuse to pay up.

I will not be bullied by the modern equivalent of gangsters.  I will not pay a ransom to run my business.


No, I will support forums where mature, grown ups come to talk.  Gun Owners of Canada is small but discussion is civil and often filled with ex CGN expats who got tired of the BS or were themselves ostracized for having an opinion that runs contrary to the mindless, circle-jerk, groupthink mentality of the brainwashed freedom of speech hating ass hats who moderate the forum.
