You have got to do what I did today. I am still laughing. I went to Wholesale sports and asked for a specific rifle. The guy asked to see the card so I showed him a valid POL license (not the pal) he brought out the rifle and I handled it. I then said I want it and handed him the Visa. He asked for the PAL so I handed him the POL license. He looked at it and said I cannot allow the sale due to insufficient licensing. I told him I wanted the rifle and would he PLEASE call someone who would authorize it or get approval. Over comes the store manager and after hearing from the employee, He stated we cannot by law sell me the firearm and that handling it was the limit of my license in their store. I told him I would like to bet him 50 bucks that when they call the RCMP for approval it will go through. I told him I found a loophole and was purchasing the rifle to prove as much. He would not bet me and I said you will either walk out of here with 50 bucks or lose 50 bucks and I pulled out a 50 and handed it to the employee and said you are the referee. He said it won't go through but OK. I handed him the POL license. Fortunately I had taken a small piece of tape and written the number 4 on it and it covered up what was the 3 on my POL license. The number did not change when I upgraded to a PAL except the very last digit which I had covered up. I also told the manager he needed to talk to the RCMP as though it were a PAL license and if it were approved, together we could take it to the newspapers. I think he was more than a little PO'D that I got 50 off the rifle when I told him how I did it. He must have thought we were going to be on national TV when they gave the OK.
