Fredericton, NB, Airgun Registry

[Rob]

Fredericton, New Brunswick has an airgun registry. All airguns, including BB guns, airsoft, paintball, and pellet guns of all types MUST be registered with the Fredericton Police. I think its the only Airgun Registry in Canada, possibly the only one in North America. If there are any others I'd like to hear about it.

Well looks like Fredericton (and New Brunswick) is one place in Canada where i will never consider relocating.

Wondering how this registry came about.

Lame...

So what's the penalty for not registering that Red Ryder assault rifle that lays rusting away in the attic.

I think New Jersey has or is working on it. Under what authority do they think they can do this? Or is it a case of noone will take it to court because of expense and so they get away with it.

Fredericton is like a weird bubble of hippie white collar civil servants, who drink decaf, hold hands and sing koumbia all day..the rest of the province operates like the rest of Canada.

[xdmer]

This is retarded.

So... if I was to drive down there to shoot an air pistol match, would I need to register my gun?

-

On a more serious note, I womder how crime it solved

I'm shaking in my boots......not!

I could easily see this spreading to other cities.
The stupid has no limits.

 

[gopher73]

This is what you get after years of Liberal vote buying - a city full of federal bureaucrats with the collective IQ of a sheep.

If I lived there, I'd go and register my impact wrenches just to annoy someone.

If I have to register a "spring gun," does that mean my kids NERF gun needs to be registered?!?

I never realized that the East coast was even more stupid than Ontario!

 

[fraserdw]

All best people have gone to Alberta, whats left is getting crazier and crazier everyday. Witness resource development, communities with 85% on welfare and rioting AGAINST jobs.

"You could put an eye out!!!!!".
