ATT's what you need to know

Is it normal to call the 1800 number and have them be constantly busy or you receive a generic message that the 'volume of calls' is too high and to call back?
 
Just called to get conditions changed on my ATT for all provinces in western Canada. Was told I have to have a membership to a range in each province. This was the Sask CFO too...
 
1. write your test and pass.
2. send in your rpal application and test results.
3. wait to you see that your application is starting to be processed, Than to speed things along call them and ask if they would like your references to call them and if they could do your interview now, or wait for them to call you and your references.
4. receive your license in the mail and order your gun.
5. Send in your Att application with sections a, c, and f filled out only and a copy of your range membership card. You can also fax this in and mine was completed within the hour.

CFO told me that if the firearm was sent to the post office that I would need a temp att to bring it home. I asked her what if I don't know what it is because I had ordered other parcels to and she told me that I should then get a temp att for any parcels coming from the place of order just in case. With this, keep in mind a lot of gunnuts say don't open it and just take it home.
Hope this helps. The whole process took approx 5 weeks from 1 to 5 for me.

Can anybody educate me on the new process for LTATT in New Brunswick, im moving there in a couple of months, and would like to know what I need to do to get the best ATT, to allow me the most freedom of movement with my Restricted Firearms. Thanks

Was it easy to get conditions changed? It looks like I just got a lame LT/ATT without asking for it. ( emailed to me ) Besides the 5 year date, is their any indication on the paper stating LT/ATT? I'm looking for all ranges and gunsmiths in Sask. Also "all in possession that I have certificates for. Going to phone CFO tomorrow.

Mine was just a LTATT, to and from all ranges and gunsmiths in province, and must have the reg certs for transported firearms

Thanks, I figured it out. They e mailed me my ST/ATT and LT/ATT and I was only receiving the first page of each. It revealed the all ranges and gunsmiths on the other pages. It had to be sent by FAX in order to show those pages. Not sure where the glitch was.
If I had not looked it all over I probably would have been in some kind of trouble I'm sure.
 
Hey guys, might not be the right thread but was wondering if it was possible for me to make pit stops with a restricted in the car on the way to the range. What i mean is lets say there is a Futureshop between my place and the range, or a Sail right next to my range, is it OK to leave my gun in the car or must i absolutely go home and back? In the second example my car would be at the range and the gun in it, is that any better? And if i am allowed to make pit stops like the examples i mentioned just above are there any time limits per say? Thank you

Call and ask the CFO what your ATT allows. Here you will just get a can of paranoid worms.
 
How does the ATT work if I order a Hand gun and UPS or Canada post leaves a notice to pick it up. Do I have to apply for a ATT (Ontario) to pick it up from the post office/ups etc or does the ATT it was sent with still work?
I am guilty of not reading the whole thread to find my answer....in my defense its really long
 
The CFO will tell you to get a separate ATT.
However, you are simply picking up a package. You get many packages. It could be anything.
Shall you get an ATT for every notice, just in case?

Stop spouting this lie. And telling new people to break the law.

Its not just a package and you know what it is. You require an ATT to transport a restricted firearm.

You will need to call and get an ATT for it. The one used to get it to the post office is only valid for the person who applied for it and is non transferable. And it may not of even of had an ATT as if it was from a business they do not require them.

Well Shawn, thanks for correcting me.
I will be calling the CFO every time I get a delivery notice from now on.
Just in case.
Thanks!

You can post your drama BS all you want, doesn't change the legality of transporting a restricted firearm.

Or e-mail the CFO requesting it the day the vendor ships it ..

In Quebec it takes about 3-4 days before you receive the e-mail authorization just in time to pick up the package at the post office.
 
Thanks guys! I KNOW what I am expecting in the mail..I also get a tracking number telling me what it is and when its arriving....I will be SURE to get my ATT

No drama at all Shawn. I am sincerely going to get ATT's for every delivery notice.
Even though the person who is delivering it to me doesn't need one, or even an RPAL.
The voice you are hearing inside your head when you read my posts must sound like a real a$$hole.
You should have a word with him.
Heres one for you Shawn,
Can I pick it up from a trip to the range, if it is in all cases a reasonably direct route with my valid ATT?
Lets say for the sake of argument it isn't a new gun, but one returning from repairs?

Fill you boots, just stop telling new people to break the law.

LOL LOL LOL LOL the old that guy doesn't have to do it so neither do I BS argument. You know very well they are exempted from the firearms act.

Must sound like the one in your head that tells you that telling people to break the law is a good idea.

Counselling offence that is not committed

464. Except where otherwise expressly provided by law, the following provisions apply in respect of persons who counsel other persons to commit offences, namely,

(a) every one who counsels another person to commit an indictable offence is, if the offence is not committed, guilty of an indictable offence and liable to the same punishment to which a person who attempts to commit that offence is liable; and
(b) every one who counsels another person to commit an offence punishable on summary conviction is, if the offence is not committed, guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.

You apparently have a good grasp of the firearms act :rolleyes: you tell us.

Shawn, I have always shown you the utmost respect here. You are one of the most decent LEO's to debate with here.
I couldn't resist having a little fun at your expense.
Please accept my humblest apologies.

"The law is an Ass. " make sure yours is covered.
That is all.
