Buying Ammo in Ontario-

[Sly Old Fox]

I was in LeBaron this morning, picked up a box of Hornady 7.62 X 39 NC SST 123 gr. hunting rounds and a brick of 10 X 50 CC! Stinger LR, with only my PAL as opposed to the BS that CTC are pulling.

Last week, when I was buying .223 ammo at CTC, I was only asked for my PAL. Maybe things have changed.

We should find the Email for the head office of CDN Tire and flood them with thousands and thousands of emails from firearm owners who are refusing to buy ammunition from them until they change their ways.


On the other hand, I'd rather support my local gun store, they won't stab you in the back policy changes and self imposed rules.

Just curious if you are a member there?. It is LAW that you're address be recorded. If you are a member, they already have your address in the system so they linked you to it.

Member of what?

There was a post last week that the Ontario CFO is no longer requiring people provide their address to purchase ammo, saying the reason is "privacy concerns"

They still record name, pal #, date, type and quantity of ammo purchased though.

I assume Club LeBaron. $25.00/year gets you 10% off your purchases, but ammo is usually excluded from that.

But as I said in my above post, that has nothing to do with it. It is a change from the CFO.

If I could drive (broken right foot a couple days ago) I'd go to my local CT Store and grab a box of 22's right now just to see if they, the most horrid CT Store in Canada, have picked up the ball on this one yet

I just bought 3 bulk packs of .22 in Hamilton at CT and the clerk just asked for my PAL. He even apologized because it took him an extra few seconds to log it in the book!

It only seems to be CT and Wally Mart that records your address.

Le Barons used to ask for your address, but have since stopped, and their 10% card is good for ammo too unless it's on sale. I picked up a bunch of their winchester value 45 acp @ $39/100 (I'm still accumulating brass for reloading) but since it's a special no go for the 10%. FYI Bass Pro wanted $37/100 for winchester UNPRIMED BRASS.
