Controversies

[edit]

The first two controversies do not have any source to backup their claims so I've put in citation requested. If some has citeable sources per Wikipedia guidleines, please add them. -TheDrew (talk) 17:34, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a link to the Moncton shooting and expanded on that section of this article with info from that page. I found zero info on the first controversy, claiming that the NRA funds/controls them. I've since deleted the following: "The NFA has been criticized for both being irrelevant in Canada, now that the Canadian long-gun registry has been revoked.[citation needed] It has also been criticized for being a puppet organization of the American National Rifle Association, from which the NFA gets a majority of its funding.[citation needed]"

This section was deleted entirely bit-by-bit. I've restored it. It's the only part of the article with 3rd-party sources. The referencing can be improved, but it's inappropriate to simply delete it outright.
At the same time, a huge section devoted to the NFA's actions has been added. That material looks like it might have been copied from their website or a press release. It needs references and probably a major re-write for NPOV. Felsic2 (talk) 18:40, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article ONLY details controversies.

[edit]

As such, I've added the NPOV tags at the top. I shall get to work tomorrow making this page more neutral and less lop-sided in its extremely negative, biased state at this moment. TheEpicGhosty (talk) 03:03, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
