One of my University professors said it best;
"Failure through over-analysis........"
The issue is simple; If you think you can get away with taking people's private property, you probably will. Clearly, gun owners were not as prepared, or as organized as they are today. There would certainly be a challenge in the courts for a confiscation without compensation initiative if it happened today. I still believe that there is sufficient knowledge on existing property rights (as elusive as they are) to warrant complete confiscation without compensation a difficult proposition by todays' standards.

Yes time to join the CSSA to organise the resistance
To (maybe) answer T Star, I know that the HK-93 (5.56 version of the 91) was not restricted as long as the barrel was over 18.5, but I believe the 91 was restricted and the G3 was restricted as a CFA. The M14 was a semi that could be converted to full therefore not a CFA by the definition of the time. Boy, I'm glad all of those scary weapons are past their "Best Before" date, because they sure don't appear to be in the registry in the numbers that I saw.

I was around (26 Sept 1992). And when I arrived at the OPP station in Kitchener, with my Polish AKM (CA). I was informed I also needed to turn in 20rds of ammunition just in case the examiner in Toronto needed to fire the weapon.
Luckily everything passed with flying colours and my AK came home without being used. Unfortunately, my SPAS-12 purchased at a gun store and since I signed the registry book at said-store, did not come home to me. I believe the offical wording of the laws at that time referred to OICs of the particular Bill, or "Orders in Council". Next time around, I hope we all can get our butts organized and a proper legal defense mounted.

yea, that's why the numbers imported and the registry match
those orders in council were just a "back door" to get around parliament; you went to bed a free man and woke up a criminal- dave tomlinson/ray laycock, and the rest of us tried to mount the best defense we could, but the organization numbers were'nt there and nobody else gave a dam anyway- the numbers on this board alone far and away exceed the total membership at the time- and if harper wanted to, he could rescind those same orders by the same process- or twilight them-that's what happened to the "assualt gun ban " in the states+1

The irony of a gun ban is that it will simply create new forms of crime. Banning handguns won't do much to reduce the demand, and so many current law-abiding gun owners will seek to illegally purchase guns that have been smuggled into the country. The concept is known as cross-deterence: the government passes a law to reduce one kind of crime (i.e. shootings on the streets of gang-tario cities), and instead inadvertantly creates or increases another form of crime (i.e. smuggling and the purchase of illegal firearms).
If every single person who owns a gun refuses to relinquish it (if and when they are banned), then we'll all keep our guns. If the majority simply ##### and complain, and then turn them in when the time comes, then the few holdouts who refuse will be prosecuted, criminalized, and will lose their guns anyway.
