That's a fine idea, but that would confine Canadians to only be able to compete in Canada and not against the rest of the world.
If a global change occurred where everyone went into some sort of CO2 powered (simulated recoil, since felt recoil and recoil control is a big part of the sport) and laser actuated target scoring system, then sure.
But that's not going to happen, since the rest of the world is relatively sane and still allows handguns and semi-auto sporting rifles (yes, I'm looking at you EU countries like France, etc.) for sport shooting purposes.
Canada, even well before these two sets of measures in 2020 and 2022, had some of the strictest gun control measures in the world.
