Hmmm, that's really interesting. But don't you guys already have your own anti-assault rifle laws?

And yes, it does seem Canada gets the latest Chinese weapons in bulk. That certainly explains the QBZ-97s that Americans have seen in our TV shows and movies that were filmed in Canada.

Yeah, I love the original as much as anyone, even if it was an absurd concept. But remaking "Red Dawn", 20 years after the Cold War ended and "Reds" ceased to exist, just seems to be pissing on the original's historical value (and yes, I do consider "Red Dawn" to be a film of enduring historical value).
