I agree with your definitions and reasoning. A judge might also. However, as you referred to, the reality is that whether you are right or wrong will not stop you being arrested, having the police recommend charges, and having some "motivated" crown counsel laying charges and prosecuting you. An expensive & stressful experience...
I say, always err on the side of caution.

Think they need a better locking system. Now that you know what unlocks it what's stopping people from just carrying around a magnet?
What do you need a magnet for ? just rip the shelf of the wall and take the whole thing with you. i like the idea but no thanks
Cool idea, and I'd totally buy one, except I certainyl don't think they meet storage requirements of restricted.
Wouldn't want to have this and trigger locks.
They just need to beef up security of the locking system, and they might have me
Attaining a lifestyle nothing short of enviable...essentially, living the dream.
Alright question, hypothetically, if I put the mirror in my walk in closet and have a solid locking door on my closet would it count? The mirror locks and is secured to the wall and the door is locked and there are no windows in the closet.
Great, I showed this thread to my wife and she says you can now build us some storage shelving on my vacation. Drats, I was hoping to go hunting next week. May have to put off shelves for a month......
I ride a m/c. If you TEXT, drive and injure or kill me. Well my dad says life is not worth living. I don't know if that means him or you.
Here's the long and the short of it...
Regardless if you store your guns in a safe, drawer, shelf or a mirror; if someone breaks into your house and you shoot them, you're going to be in trouble. Past cases prove that. The decision is now on you as to how you want to store your firearms in order to keep you and your family safe.
I recommend that if you buy one of these and the RCMP contacts you to set up a date for inspection, you should probably store your firearms in a proper safe and lock them up. I find it unlikely that they will deem one of these as proper storage.
We can sit here and debate it all day. We all know the silly rules and it's up to you as to how far you want to stretch them.
