Hi all just wondering my gf just recently got her restricted ..would she be able to be on the att to go to the range herself or would be a each anevery time she and I would have to arrange for a short term att to go to the range on her days off ? Just curious will call CFO to confirm on Monday......just impatiently wondering if anyone knows the rules on this matter thanks in advance for any if any feed back .


Cheers Scott
 
It also depends on what her ATT says.

I've had ATT's that said "All restricted or prohibited firearms registered to the holders address" and I've had one that said "All restricted or prohibited firearms registered to the individual" (Both examples are paraphrased) So she should check her ATT and see the wording.
 
Also check the rules with your shooting club - some require spouse/family memberships or otherwise she would have to be under your direct supervision as a guest (then no transport problem as you would be with her as well).
 
C42 States only restricted registered to person, she would need a STATT and the certificate every time. New rules suck
 
Sounds like a real good reason to go "shopping" and get her, her own restricted firearm :)
 
Lots of wrong answers in this thread....

IF she has an RPAL and IF she is a member of the range and IF she has at least one restricted registered to her for "target shooting" so she has the ATT condition thingy on her RPAL

THEN

YES you can lend her one of your restricteds to take to the range and shoot. You do NOT have to live together, but, in theory, you would have to lend it to her somewhere that you both can transport to/from, like the range for example.

IF you lend it to her, you MUST also give her a copy of the reg certificate

that is the current way it works, I"m not a lawyer but anyone can go look it up for themselves

Sorry that is not how it works now. Talked to the CFO about this when I got my renewal. New licence had the ATT conditions to a range as firearms registered to me. STATT for me to borrow my wife's or for her to borrow mine. Even the gal at the CFO thought it was stupid to require spouses to have to get a STATT. My wife keeps her pistols in the same safe as I do, so you think she doesn't have access?

The CFO in your province is breaking C42. The law is very clear that the CFO MUST attach a condition to the RPAL that allows transport of restricteds "in your POSSESSION" to the range for target shooting, it also specifies the rules for "lending" a restricted gun to someone and thereby putting it into their possession.

The law does NOT say "registered to you" it says "in your possession" and it also does not give the CFO any choice in the matter.

The Alberta CFO has been sued many times for different things and lost, this will eventually just be another case where the CFO loses in court.
