Buying unregistered restricteds

The problem is this...as has been explained to me by someone on the inside of the registry system...at least once over the years there has been a massive loss of registration information of registered handguns.
No kidding.
And guns never just walked across the border without anyone knowing or were brought back from the war and thus never registered?
Years ago the VP for a company I was working for asked me to help move her mother in law out of the old family homestead and into a nursing home... side gig on the weekend, cash job... on the drive there they called me, knowing I collected firearms and told me they found a gun.
Turned out to be a mint S&W victory revolver!
The executor of the will simply transferred the gun to me through the CFO's office, took about 3 weeks and I was the proud new owner!

I have had my CFO office tell be a bunch of bull $hit more than once. Get your facts elsewhere if you can.

Yeah notice how the CFO's office (in BC) will never, ever put anything in writing or leave a recorded message. Even if you call with a simple question, they'll simply respond with a message asking you to call them back.
If they're going to conduct business in a way that they can deny everything they say, you shouldn't call them for advice unless you have to.
You could always record the call if needed, In Canada only one party has to give consent.
Well I finally got my hands on these firearms. 1 Cooey, 1 antique black powder, and a WW1 Sauer & Sons 7.65. Very nice condition for being about 100 years old. Now the rub, its got a 3" barrel. What beutiful little piece but I dont have a prohib license so I didn't try to hard to hang onto it. I called the Brantford Police and they just took it away. I'll have nightmares for weeks to come. Knowing its going into a furnace somewhere to be melted down.
I just didn't know of any other legal course of action. Of course I was paranoid the whole time that when I did turn it in, that they were going to charge me with illegal possesion or something. Fortunately, my concerns were unfounded. Had I lived in Toronto, it may have gone down differently.

should have just got it deactivated, then at least be able to admire something from the war. or call a museum...
It's very easy with a cell phone. I could routinely record all of my calls if I wanted to, without any issues.

Out of curiosity, someone with a prohib license could not have taken possession of it?

Do you think turning them in helped public safety? And why be paranoid. You should have shut up and taken the damn guns and not told anyone. Now your just adding the numbers of "guns taken off the streets"

Exactly. Nor do they care about rarity, historic, scientific, or technical value or uniqueness. All will go into the smelter eventually. I recently acquired a very rare prohib Smith; one of only 615 ever made. It's days are numbered too.
Like Satan, the gun grabbers are biblically patient in terms of plan implementation.
