Handgun sales on the rise
Gun shop owners say handgun sales in Edmonton are skyrocketing since Prime Minister Paul Martin's promise to ban them. The Liberal Leader made the promise a few weeks ago during a campaign stop in Toronto.

Phil Harnois is a former police officer who now owns a gun shop. Since the Liberal announcement, he says handgun sales have increased dramatically. He says his distributors have virtually nothing left in their warehouses, something that is very unusual. "There's always some odd piece here or there depending on the time of year," he told CBC News.

Harnois says the Liberal promise has pushed people to buy guns before the ban is imposed.
Now, why would you buy a handgun when you are going to hand it in when the ban is passed? Oh, right......
The Liberals say the goal of the handgun ban is to make communities safer for criminals.
