they are still legal to own and buy, the bill is not law yet
if you want a swiss for under 1500$ hell even 2000$ good luck, the ones who own then will jyst hang on to then
Some people assume the province CFOs will stop issuing ATTs like they did with other grandfathered prohibited guns and they might be right.
A sub 1000$ CZ 858 isnt that bad of a gamble but when its 3000$+ people might not want to take that chance.
If they stop issuing transport authorisations the gun becomes a safe queen / paperweight basically.
Thought they said there will be no passing them on through inheritance unless the person has the right 12.(whatever number they make up) license which no one will have unless they owned one when they changed the classification.
If this does go through and they make them restricted or prohibited the resale value will drop quickly, this is one of the reasons there seems to be so many for sale right now.
Being grandfathered into this new classification is not a good thing, it will not allow anyone to all of a sudden buy firearms they couldn't before and it will do nothing but turn a bunch of very nice firearms into range queens or even worse into paperweights (eventually).
Don't let them trick you into thinking this is a good thing. Write your MP, write to the PM, get all your friends involved, sign the petitions, sign the letters. We have to stop this, not let them fleece us with some garbage about making things safer and lying to us about letting us continue to use them.
I'm not going to tell you what to do, but I'm no facking sheep that says thank you and please while being led to the slaughter.
You may need to "transfer" it to him before the new legislation for this to work
Thank-you, Captain Obvious!
There is no chance these won't end up prohib. Rcmp opinion is they are a variant of a named prohib, and the Liberals believe the rcmps word is final with regards to guns.
As I say, still write letters. Still point out how misleading the use of 2013 to compare crime rates is. Still point out how this does absolutely nothing to further public safety. If they lose the next election they might look back at this and realize gun owners are not to be ####ed with. If we don't write letters and express our concerns then there is no chance they'll change their tune in the future.
So there is yet another wrinkle in this. At my range I brought this up and they don’t allow prohibs there. So I might not even be able to shoot them at the very range I’ve shot them before at. However easy and convenient the Liberals try and claim it will be... you know it won’t be. From no ATT authorizations to ranges that don’t/can’t allow prohibs.
No I’m not selling mine. But this situation really does piss me off. There is no legitimate reason to cancel the OIC allowing the cz and PE90 to remain non restricted. This is a clear F you to firearm owners and the Conservatives from the Liberals. Evidence based, blah blah BS.. it’s plain out emotionally driven and vindictive.

Well the senate could stop it...
Had Harper filled most of the 25 senate seats left vacant going into the last election they could have...
