Congrats on the new gun.

As far as I know that is not legal. If you keep ammo with any firearms you can be held liable. Ammo must not be accessible to load.

Why does everybody care about the serial numbers? Is there something the average citizen can do with them that I'm not aware of? My VIN number is pretty plain to see on my car! Should I hide it?

You cannot store a loaded gun. But there's nothing illegal about storing ammo with the gun.

If it's in a "safe" then you're good to keep loaded mags along side the gun. A loaded mag is not a loaded gun. There is some confusion as to what constitutes a safe, as there is no legal definition, but if the container was bought as a gun safe, or gun locker it shouldn't cause any problems.Let's not make things worse than they need to be.

Congratulations on a terrific purchase, that is a beautiful peice of equipment and should last you many years. Also Kudos on buying a 1911, it's where serious pistol shooters tend to end up anyway, so you've got a head start.

would any damage be done by storing it cocked? A lot of people i know store them cocked. right now mine is now stored with the hammer down, and a loaded mag sitting beside it. (stored in a safe)

What difference does it make if the hammer is up or down? You're still gonna have to rack the slide if you wanna chamber a round.

I store my 1911s decocked and unloaded.

Hey how did you get your gun without a licence? Since you are 16?

Why is that, pray tell?

It's nice to see there are some 16 year old Canadians who have a good start on growing into being MEN. God save save us from sensitive, new age "guys"
