Inhereited a Colt Python 6" Barrel Stainless steel.

If the revolver has sentimental value , you may be able to arrange storage of the firearm at a dealer until the government changes . Not sure what the cost would be .

From what I’ve seen, typically, if you are the executor, you could hold onto it for a year before the CFO starts pressuring you to sell it or have it deactivated.

That must be one of the many made up rules/laws/policies that the police/government/courts/CFO try and pass off as legitimate
 
Dang .. Very Nice Piece! Top tier sentimental 'stuff', when they're that old, it sometimes goes to where they want..after they're Dead, of course.
 
When the conservatives win. They need to remove all registration. It is the only way to save this sport from government over reach.

Sorry for the loss of your father
 
To the OP, Colt is selling its snake line in the US nowadays, and there is renewed demand for them. You might be able to export it for a better price than deactivating.

When I cleared my father's estate I found 1 handgun that turned out to be stolen; two that were previously declared lost; and papers for two more that could not be found. There are three others stuck in the estate which cannot be cleared because I'll be damned if they go to the shredder.

The problem with estates is they are provincial and firearms are federal. I've written my MP and MPP to highlight the dilemma their collective presumptuous decrees have created. No word back, but the matter bears reinforcing. I suggest writing to your MP to have the handgun registry opened for inheritances. Afterall, there was a clause for many years that allowed heirs to get pre-1945 Prohibiteds.

Interesting question. If the OP is the executor and has a RPAL, would he (legally) be able to take it to the range as anyone else who owns handguns?
 
The executor is responsible for getting the best prices from an estate to pass to the beneficiaries. They can elect to hold onto property for some time, if current situations preclude a profitable sale. The executor could legitimately hold onto it until things improve (in the eyes of the executor). The legal system cannot over ride that responsibility.
 
^^a call in for an att to the range would clear that up. If att's are still a thing? (At one time they were attached to the license.) Also the reg cert needs to be with it. Hard to keep track of all this liberal garbage
