Taking your new Shadow 2 to the club in Ontario
- Thread starter kidcom
- Start date
As per my original reply, why would anyone appoint themselves chief nanny and write this post in the first place? Is it your job to police all the members here on CGN, do you know that people are in fact doing what you accuse them of? Sometimes reg certs only take a couple days to arrive, not weeks. It's absolutely ridiculous that these kinds of threads get posted. Next we'll have a thread about putting 9mm bullets in 40 mags...
They do it for one reason and one reason only-----SPAM, to create bickering between forum members. In other forums, people that post spam get notified and if it continues, get banned. There is nothing useful, or helpful in his original post. If he works for the CFO office, and supplied references where this has impacted legit gunowners, then that maybe a different story, but that is obviously not the case. Even more to reflect this is that he is specific to 'shadow 2's' and 'Ontario', which shows intent as it is geared towards a particular gun and a particular province when the reality is that gun laws are federal, and not to a specific model.
I personally do not understand why this thread was reopened. MODS, can we please close this once and for all!

Having ridden HD motorcycles in this country for 40 years I can tell you that comment is 100% incorrect.
Ah the advantages of not owning a donorcycle. You are not suggesting our police think guys riding a HD are involved with the drug trade are you? My son rides the HD and not sure if he has been stopped yet or not. He has never said.
Slavex you seem to be insinuating the confirmation letter would not be enough prove that the gun was registered to the owner. This certainly is not the case. The CFO here in BC has offered me a STAT if I needed one to pick up the gun the day it was registered and before I even got the letter saying the gun was registered to me. One of our members who are police officers can chime in and confirm or otherwise whether or not they can check to see if a gun is registered or not from their cruisers. Certainly the letter you get confirms the gun is registered and to who.
Nothing wrong with the topic. Forums are used to discuss topics of interest. Yes, members will take a gun to the range with only the letter in hand. I have. Our mail service often has the letter arriving well before the certificate. The local RCMP officers have more common sense then some folks here seem to imply.
We love in a nanny state, populated by more than enough nannies. Surely no surprise there....some even own firearms.
You can out 9mm bullets in a 40cal mag.........

Total BS, maybe that's how it works where you live. Where I live the police are more interested in harassing and building their egos then "serving and protecting". As a law abiding citizen this has been my experience with them. Don't trust a police officer, they will kick you in the face while you are down on the ground cooperating with their instructions or maybe sucker punch you in the face for questioning why they are harassing you.
You watch way to much TV. How many times have you been kicked by a Police Officer? Or punched in the face by one? Answer is none. If you have, walk or run to your local newspaper and then with a lawyer in hand down to the local police station. If you are going to print innuendos man up and tell us what city you live in.

You seem to be really into my business. I have had very bad dealings with LEO which did lead to action against them and I live in Victoria, the particulars of which are none of your business. I don't trust a police officer as far as I could throw one. Just because you have had different experiences doesn't mean I am not entitled to share my experience or my opinion, it is a forum after all. If you can't handle someone disagreeing with you then you should not be on here.
Telling me I watch too much TV just shows complete ignorance, but hey, it's the internet.
So one bad experience says all police are the same and your experience is the norm. You didn't share your experience you tared and continue to tar every officer with the same brush as if your experience was common, Well it isn't and when it happens you have legal redress and compensation if their actions were not justified. If they were justified then re-think your own actions. Sad to hear you don't trust those who would protect you. You should seek counselling for your own good. But hey it is the internet and you likely won't.

Discussing this is pointless. You are apparently all knowing. I posted my original opinion to contribute and even answered your query. You respond with personal insults, telling me I need counseling for my opinions. I refuse to feed the troll.
Can you quote the actual law that supports your post? This is very confusing.
You're absolutely right, and that's the sorry state of affairs of our gun laws, there is so much ambiguity and conflicting information that half the time we're just guessing what the law actually is and hoping we don't get popped for something.
In this case, the CFO's that say you can bring your gun home and to the range with a transfer notice might be right. The CFO's that say you can't bring your gun home until you get your FRC might be right. However, the CFO's that say you can bring your gun home but not take it to the range with the transfer notification are definitely wrong. The transfer notification either is a temporary FRC, or it isn't a temporary FRC. It can't be an FRC for bringing the gun home but not for taking it to the range, there is nothing in the law the distinguishes between purposes of transport as pertaining to the FRC.
Bob, where exactly was I insinuating anything about confirmation letters? Here is my reply, again,
"As per my original reply, why would anyone appoint themselves chief nanny and write this post in the first place?

The bolded sentences suggest you only have to wait a couple of days for the certificates. This would suggest there is a need to wait. I doubt that is your position on this but you wrote it. There is no need to wait but, like you, I find it disturbing that someone would start these threads. Do what you feel is right and reasonable. I remain convinced the local police have more important things to worry about than chasing down firearms certificates randomly particularly when they have in their hand a letter saying that John Doe is the registered owner of x handgun serial #1234. Just saying. Some may have other life experiences.
