Laws are changed so off duty and retired police do not have more, or few, gun rights that commoners. My understanding is that this is basically how it is in Canada, eh?.

The likely consequence:

- Police organizations stop supporting further restricting on carry rights, expansion of "prohibited places", etc.
- Police organizations support laws that reduce restrictions on commoners, since their members are also commoners.

I do not subscribe to the position of "Give me my rights first, then rights for others willl follow". You do. Not a criticism of you, just observing we have a good faith difference of opinion on the matter.
