Just curious who deactivates around Vancouver, and a ball park figure for cost? For an ar15.

Just gathering all options. For a Lego gun like this, deactivation seems like a decent option.

Edit; of course I want nothing more than the law to be reversed and to shoot the thing more. But I don't sell guns, I just buy em. So if the confiscation goes through and grand fathering doesn't happen, this is my last option to keep it.

Unfortunately it's restricted so unfortunate boating accidents don't get ATTs and Mike in Canmore wasn't interested.

If the time comes between confiscation, and deactivation on registered restricted guns, you'll be surprised how many take the path of least resistance.

This. Look at how easy it has been to get a lot of you to put a pice of cloth over your face to keep you 'safe'. Think about that insanity for a moment before responding!.
 
deactiving the gun will ruin all the parts on it including the barrel and trigger etc which all need to get welded up. all of those parts are still legal to have and usable in other guns so ruining them is dumb.

if worst comes to worst I will be destroying my lower and upper with a hacksaw into a few pieces the day before the end... and keeping all the other parts in working order. I won't be handing them in for money. the law says you must report registered destroyed firearms within 30 days. so you can wait 29 days after the date to call. if police show up 2 weeks later demanding it you can laugh at them.... and tell them you just haven't reported it yet... there is no requirement to report non restricted destroyed firearms.

destroying and deactivating is 2 different things under the law. if I only destroy one side of the receiver I could likly still hang it on the wall and make it look complete from one side... with all components still functional if ever needed for another gun.

If grand fathering doesn't pan out and it's going to get confiscated... Well I don't sell guns to begin with and I for sure am not going to sell one to our untrustworthy and racist leader. Hah

With that said, I heard dlask may be an option but the cost floated around in pure Bs gun counter banter was around 1000 to 1500 bucks.

As per governmental approval, I presume.:rolleyes:

I 100% can deactivate an AR15 in such a manner that they’d approve of it... cut the upper and lower in half.

Deactivating an AR15 is going to be total butchery if your goal is to keep it. You’re going to have to weld the upper and lower together which will look awful, among other things that will be ruined.

If it comes to that, I’d strip it and destroy the receivers.
 
I urge you to be patient for the next few months as there is many professionals working hard to protect the interests of firearms owners in Canada. Defeatists posts like this only serve to undermine the good work that these individuals are taking on for us. This is FAR from over by any means.

Yeah. And to keep possession of it for a life time rather than having it stolen away from me.

I've only dealt with three gunsmiths in the Lower Mainland; Dlask, Hical and Siwash Sports. I would assume any competent gunsmith could deactivate an AR-15 tastefully. I don't recommend Siwash at all. So between Hical and Dlask, I would definitely go with Dlask. Shoot them an email to get a quote I suppose.

I don't believe he's doing it now. I think hes waiting until the last moment. At least, I hope.

I thought about that insanity for a moment fore responding and took offence to your implied superiority over a “ lot “ of us . Forgive me ( or not ) if I took your post the wrong way . Feel free to correct me .

I HATE wearing a mask and don’t for one second buy the spin that it helps , in fact I firmly believe it is making health matters worse for those forced to wear them for extended periods of time. However , have you tried making a single purchase out there nowadays without one ? I need the essentials to carry on and can’t get them without playing along for the few minutes required to get them.

So please , regal us all with the details on how you manage to elevate yourself to the lofty level of referring to “ a lot of you “ as some kind of easy push-overs . Maybe , we’ll all learn the wisdom of your ways and be able to rise up above this insanity , with credit to you ?
