If I got these guns deactivated is there any interest on CGN. If so --how much $

How do I apply for an ATT in Quebec. What number do I call.

To get an ATT you call the standard CFP number. You can use the Individual Web Services to apply for an ATT as well, I don't own prohibited but I assume ATTs through IWS covers them too?...
 
“Should I deactivate these?”

Everyone: “No!”

“Okay I sent them to be deactivated.”

Funny thread. You know you could just have your gunsmith disassemble them for you at likely much less cost…

I suspect they will be much more salable once deactivated.
There is no market for them now.
Time will tell?

Please let us know.

There will be more potential buyers, once they are deactivated, for sure, but will it be profitable considering the deactivating costs?
 
The cost of deactivation is $100 per gun plus the cost of mailing them back to me.
I wasted four and a half hours yesterday (driving) to deliver the guns to the gun shop.
I couldn't find it so I came back and decided to mail them.
The prepaid box cost just under $20.
I had to put $48 of gas in my car after this driving adventure.

Each of the guns were in these padded Browning cases. (Click on these photos to enlarge them)

right?

Jason doesn't hold back so I'm sure he told him as much. I know he has someone he can sell these guns live for export, so the post deactivated price must have been lucrative enough.
 
My Father bought these two Smith & Wesson Victory Model revolvers from Barry Shane (Lessard Police Equipment) in 1974 for $20 each.

I believe Barry Shane died on October 25 2007.



 
Twenty bucks in 1974 dollars translates to approximately $128 in 2024 dollars.

Personally, I would've kept them as is until after the next election & see what happens.

Like what's the hurry in the de-act & attempt to re-sell? Not like they cost you anything.

It's the OP's property and David can do what he wants with them - whether we all agree with it or not.

For the record, I did offer to buy the two S&W revolvers from him about 5 years ago. I imagine they would be worth the most as parts, then next as dewats, then least as live 12(6) guns.
 
I am a U.S. Civil War weapons collector ----why do I need these revolvers.

This is where my interest lies.

These are not Civil War guns but my Father and I used to shoot them back in the 1960s.

You're 100% right.

I do hate to see pieces of history neutered however.

I have a S&W Victory model in .38 Spl that's a 12(6). No plans to part it out or neuter it at this time.

There is sometimes a good market for cutaway firearms. Courtrooms and as training aids are a couple of potential markets. The market may dictate which firearms are needed as cutaways.
 
Don't surrender until they're at your door with a big envelope full of money and even then

DON'T GIVE A INCH

which of course is the motto of the Stamper family in Sometimes A Great Notion, but also words to live by.

And speaking of deactivated restricteds/prohibiteds, if the Liberals banned the ownership of fake replica prohibited guns, why would anyone think they would tolerate the continued existence of the real things after deactivation?
