Borrowing a friend's restricted firearm questions.

[CNEPACE]

Does anybody happen to know what the procedure would be if I wanted to borrow a friend's gun to shoot it at the local gun club?

 

[Brianma65]

I just go to his house and get it,on the way to the range,get the cert card as well.

Your ATT on your PAL (if it is the one electronically one) ONLY covers the guns registered to you. You (and possibly your friend) will need to call the CFO and get a STATT. Once you have that borrow the guns and the registrations and away you go.

 

[Brianma65]

I think your ATT covers al restricted firearms, yours and the ones you borrow.

 

[CNEPACE]

But if it leaves his possesion that would cause a problem. Plus i would posses a restricted firearms not registered to me. Ill call cfo tomorrow and post here.

 

[Brianma65]

No it wouldn’t cause a problem. It’s the law.

 

[tiriaq]

The ATT privileges attached to a PAL with Restricted endorsement apply to firearms registered to the PAL holder.

 

[Brianma65]

I read this as ,you don’t need an ATT for borrowing a friends restricted.

But maybe I’m reading it wrong.

 

[tiriaq]

CNEPACE - if you are going to borrow your friend's pistol and take it shooting at your local club, be sure to print off copies of Brianma65's posts - then you will be covered if challenged.

 

[Brianma65]

Or take the CFO,s instructions.

View attachment 176389I read this as ,you don’t need an ATT for borrowing a friends restricted.

But maybe I’m reading it wrong.

Is that what your ATT currently says? Mine did prior to C42 but that changed when they standardized them...Since C42, my conditions are now prefaced with this..."These licence conditions authorize the transport of restricted and/or prohibited firearms registered to the licence holder within their province of residence by a route that, in all circumstances, is reasonably direct for the specific indicated purposes."

Yes , you're reading it wrong ! As Tiriaq has already pointed out, read what YOUR ATT conditions are and go from there. Unfortunately, in Ontario, mine (and most others) reads "valid for firearms registered to the holder" so friends guns require another ATT.

 

[Brianma65]

Ya, I’m just going by my old ATT card and what my CFO told me.
But that was 3 years ago,and things change.

The CFO wanted an email from my wife and I authorizing each other to transport and use each others restricted firearms when the other was not present. They would only authorize this to the range(s) that we have registered with the CFO.

 

[Brianma65]

lmao.

What’s your take on it?

 

[Brianma65]

The CFO wanted an email from my wife and I authorizing each other to transport and use each others restricted firearms when the other was not present. They would only authorize this to the range(s) that we have registered with the CFO.

So your saying , you can only bring your restricted to ranges that the CFO day?

 

[BunkerC]

As per what the CFO wanted, we can only bring each others restricted firearms, when alone, to the ranges that we have listed as part of regular transport not requiring a SATT.

Call the CFC or CFP and ask about the procedure.

 

[ambishooter]

To be on the legal side, call CFO. Improper interpretation of the law might cause a lot of problems. And ignorance is not an excuse when facing a legal challenge.

Call the CFC or CFP and ask about the procedure.
