RCMP assistance is required, a warrent signed by a Judge is required, civilians are not bound by QR&Os with the exceptions stated above, Crown assets disposal is not...

    Effective Range

    I probabily get way to wordy trying to explain things, point is when the pam says effective it is a mechanical function not a human one. The 243 was just trivia for you. I'm not offended like I said I just get to wordy, might be a left over from Jr NCO.
