Any UZI Owners?
- Thread starter canadian_hunter
- Start date
I own a Converted-Auto open-bolt FN Herstal Uzi. It is an OIC 12(3) Prohibited firearm, and as such cannot be owned by anyone who did not possess one or more converted-automatic firearms as of the OIC's date of coming into force. That occurred many years ago, and was a "fixed date" with no latecomers.
Those who own the factory semi-auto-only closed-bolt civilian Uzis fall under a different OIC. But it doesn't much matter. If you don't already own a firearm within that particular prohibited category, then you never (legally) will.
Sorry Al - if you are trying to find out how to legally acquire an Uzi? The answer is that you can't. Your government does not trust you to own certain military-style firearms - all identified and vilified based solely upon their "aggressive" appearance.
And that is but one reason why C-68 and its associated OICs need to be rescinded and replaced by a "practical firearms control system" for the law-abiding. As it currently stands, I am sick and frigging tired of being painted as the "bad man" simply because I enjoy the lawful use of my military firearms collection. Gee Whiz - it kind of goes with the territory given my current occupation as an infantry guy. But whatever. I (and you) apparently cannot be trusted by the Lieberal nanny-state to use our personal property in a socially responsible manner. Hence their determination to confiscate (without any compensation for the loss of investment created by their laws) all of the "evil guns".
Can someone show me an "evil" gun? Really, I am waiting. Can someone show me an "evil" car? Let's compile the accident stats and figure out which make/model was involved in the most impaired-driving accidents last year. Clearly, that particular make and model of automobile ought to be banned outright. It is clearly a KILLER!!!!!
I'm sure you get my drift.

BUMMER!!!!!
That is really disappointing. I really hope they change the laws one days. I keep watching all these videos of people in Nevada blasting away with their Uzi's, MP5's, etc, and it just makes me so friggin' jealous! I mean not only do I feel that these laws are depriving us of our freedom, but some (or most) of these gun laws are just plain DUMB!
Well, thanks for clearing it up anyway...

Al

Hopefully with the liberals losing the election, and hopefully with the conservatives winning, some of those stupid laws will be lifted (cmon AKs!)

Yeah, and maybe the transfer will be through before the LIberals will confiscate it. Sounds like they want all the restricted military style guns.Deckard said:

Why are you not allowed to shoot them? Get an SAP to bring them to Wild West or Phoenix ranges for appraisal, or consignment. As long as you are there test fire them to show the staff that they are complete and functional. Repeat as required.
The SAP controls the movement of the gun. Do what you said you were going to do, but shoot as well. All legal.
