(In a John Wayne Voice): Well Sgt. Rock, do you wrap 12 belts of .30 ammo around your neck and watch TV (Saving Private Ryan) holding your TNW 1919 and a can of pop!
Opinions are like AH's and everybody has one!
No.
All my belted ammo is 8x63mm.
Is collectorssource the only source in Canada for collectors

So I have established I collect these overpriced pieces of scrap metal, as do lots of us here and you obviously have seen that so its obviously directed at me.
We all collect different things, and thats each persons perogative perhaps you should head over to each one of the forum sections you find that disagrees with you and call them idiots as well. I never insulted you in this post any way prior and the comment could have been left out.
The historical value just means your a canadian? WTF? That sounds like you really took some time to think that one out? You think because you have a replica 1919A4 it gives you the right to talk sh&t like that? I think someone that would shell out the money it takes to get a TNW 1919A4 is a moron
You think your the only one with a firing milsurp collection Einstein, hopefully not.
So to say collecting over priced pieces of metal as you call them and to say it is not usefull is a blanketed ridiculous statement made by someone who sounds like they have the IQ of a hairdryer.
So I,m an idiot and Wendy Cukier? Your obviously the brains of your family I can tell.
Some of us restore these guns, some of my guns were torch cut and in really bad shape I paid little to nothing for them, completely restored them and quadrupled there value. I can assure you on the planet earth money is usefull. The appreciation of value on deacts is usefull. My collection of deacts is worth almost triple as to what I paid for them. That value is usefull. Collecting historical items of any kind is usefull be them simple signs, photos, slings, bayonettes is usefull as they will not allways be around and its allways the young guys like you who dont appreciate history as much now as you will when your older. Also I am sure Wendy would be more than happy to know these are going to the smelter instead of being restored be them still unable to fire a round. To keep Wendy unhappy is pretty damn usefull in my eyes?
Do you even know who Wendy is?
Tip for you the girl with the red hair on the posters at the drive thru is not Wendy. Thats Wendy's just in case you show up to protest your right to gun ownership. Its a burger joint. I,m telling you because you seem the type to mix them up.
I hear this crap ever where in the different gun disciples as I said. When I take out my M4 beside a milsurp guy, or I take out my milsurp near a black gun guy, or I shoot my 44 near a rim fire guy, its idiots like those and this that really make us our own worse enemy.
If more people respected each others perspective in our own collective gun related hobbies we'd be a stronger force.
But theres allways got to be a rotten turd in the septic tank and you sir are a turd.
Don't attempt to insult me.
wendy does love welded up deacts. To support and contribute to that only helps her cause. Yes my TNW is overpriced but at least it fires and I can legally use it anywhere a firearm can be discharged.
Exactly what can you do with your deacts? Go find some sucker to buy it? Keep the dust off? Keep em oiled up to make sure rust doesn't interfere with its non-function?
canadian thats bad. A canadian would think that a welded up former shell of a once working firearm is worth anything.
Glad I'm an Albertan.
Deacts are not firearms, or even gun related. They have to be able to discharge live ammo to qualify for that.
For what its worth I don't care what people shoot, as long as they do it in a safe manner. I actually want to get a flintlock next. I bet that will work better than a deact.
As to what you wish to collect, god-speed. It's your life and mine is mine.
Keep in mind I'm not the one that got my panties in a bunch over some simple truths.
Are deacts firearms? Or are they overpriced pieces of scrap metal? Which is the truth?

My $150 Norinco sks does the same thing your heavy, useless TNW on a bipod does.
What can you do with a support weapon, that is semi-automatic and on a tripod and is too heavy to carry around and hunt with? Nothing.
Poke holes in paper at $1 per round? I can do that with a pencil or a Ruger 10-22 for a fraction of the price.
By your own math, the TNW makes you a drooling retard that collects useless scrap metal used to make holes on a stationary range. Not only that, but it makes you a liberal and a communist and any other icon of the left that just happened to breeze by my shallow mind in an attempt to construct a half-assed emotional appeal like you did with your demented little comment about Wendy. Get real.
You have an incipient bad case of verbal diarrhea, and I apologize to the other membership here for this vulgar display of stupidity, but you brought it about.

Don’t attempt to insult you? Umm it’s too late for that. I did already a few times actually.
So lets say as an example when someone passes on and the only choice is either to deact or smelter deacting is worse than smelting in wendy’s eyes? You get my point yet. Hey I'll let in you in on a non secret she wants tighter laws on them as well. So let’s say when I found a torch cut BAR and restored it to museum condition she was happy? Please explain. Oh and your TNW fires no kidding I hope so for what you paid for it.
Now please explain how if I took several parts of a Bren, welded it back together tighter than a babies bum, found all Inglis parts over a year period, parked and or darkened it to spec, restored the wood to armory condition and now simply display this one time destroyed piece of Canadiana in my collection of live and deactivated firearms is contributing to the Coalition for Gun Control?
My collection is supporting Wendy? Oh and I am restoring another Bren that was close to the same shape. It will look mint when I am done and my customer will be very happy, according to you so will Wendy?
I don’t know how more simple to make it. I did not buy it to shoot it. That’s what my guns are for. I bought the deact/s to add to my collection of other deacts much like you would see in a museum when they display there deacts. I see it no different than someone who collects as I said bayonets’ or deactivated grenades. I guess they must be suckers and idiots as well especially the grenade folks.
Oh and yes I do oil then and keep the dust off them, you know why because it makes me happy. Allow me that at least.
Really, not gun related, tell you what I’ll hold your purse then you take my BAR into a 7-11 and ask for a burrito. I’ll be outside in your mini van hiding under your Hello Kitty floor mats.
Huh?? Earth to hook?? WTF?
Your betting your live flintlock will work better-I guess you mean shoot better than a deact? Christ I hope so, deacts aren’t supposed to shoot remember.
Finally something we agree on, and you know what, a lot better than calling deact collector’s idiots, and traitors to team Wendy right?
How did you know I was wearing panties by the way.
I got them in a bunch when you called me an idiot, the comment was designed to do so, and thus I responded. We were all having a pretty good debate about the stuff before you dropped the “I” card. Also that I support Wendy is just not right, come on man.
I never said deacts were actual firearms, thus to be so would be contradictory and illegal but they are referred to in the CC/FA as drum roll please----Deactivated FIREARMS. They are firearm related and definitely not over priced pieces of scrap metal in my opinion at least and those who fork out the money for them. Over priced perhaps but not scrap metal again in my opinion.
I,m not trying to be a #### here and I,m sorry if I busted some balls but I take my collecting of neutered prohib wanna be’s very serious. I have done a lot of research on Inglis and Long Branch, visited the sites during demolition and have tried to preserve as much as possible before they were bulldozed. I even have a website regarding them as pathetic as it is.
I did not get prohib status unfortunately and it’s a long story as to why I did not but in order to get these types of guns the only way for me and others like me is to buy deacts.

It is a firearm. A deact is not a firearm. A firearm is more important than something that is not a firearm. How many 10/22s or SKSs could one buy for what a typical deact sells for? Not to mention how many rounds of ammo?
Many deacts cost more than my TNW did.
Also my 8x63mm was a lot less than $1 a round. Cheaper than Czech 7.62x39mm. I have never shot paper with my TNW. Also I have a lot of other guns that I use to hunt.
Yes guns are just for hunting...how canadian of you.

I gues that the same line of reasoning applies to anyone who collects military uniforms, shoulder flashes etc. We should have a right to collect what turns our crank without being called idiots.
My hat goes off to anyone willing to put the time and money to restoring authentic memobilia.

If the firearms community had supported the full auto collectors in 1978, you still would have been able to collect these guns. Because they didn't...you can't! All of the accessories for FA's and Inglis High Powers are very collectable even now. Many of the FA collections will end up in Europe in the future, a great loss to Canadian History.
A Bren is not a prohib by name. With all that effort you could have done something useful, that wendy would hate.
A BAR is not a prohib by name. With all that effort you could have done something useful, that wendy would hate.
7/11? Ahh ok a city boy, and a canadian one at that.

You have no right to not be offended.
Keep in mind that many of these deacts are not named prohibs.
My line of reasoning has nothing to do with uniforms, shoulder flashes or bayonets. That is history.
Deacts that are "worth" thousands of dollars is sheer complete madness.

Who are interested in collecting some deactivated prohibited firearms?
Just post a WTB ad on the EE for what you are looking for, as dealers dewats (inventory) are eventually sold and go into collector's hands on CGN!
The mod has a point, the original poster simply asked where to buy the things, he if a collector didnt need to be told he was an idiot or that the item he was considering buying is better off in a smelter. Its insulting and condesending.
Again man, what language are you speaking, you keep pushing the issue but in Retardineese. The guy simply just wanted to buy deacts leave him be. You keep making yourself look more like a tool with every word.
Like what send her low fat sugar free cookies? You have no frigging idea what you are talking about-at all and as everyone can tell it shows.
Like what give her treadmill and a mens shaver, perhaps some Old Spice to hide the quief smell?
Most will agree taking a torch cut gun that was a heap of ripped apart metal bound for the smelter and fixing it back up to museum quality so some people could enjoy it in a collection didnt make her happy. Do you really think she is civil enough to not see deacts as a threat to her happy world of ignorance as well? If you do you need shock therapy. As I said she wants them gone as well. How many times do I have to say it to you.
City Boy?? You looking for a date or something? Whats your point?
I,m sure this guy uses the term "city boy"quite often
Ya? what now people who were raised in the city are idiots as well now? A Canadian one? Ummmm yes I am Canadian is that ok?
Hey did you know the prices vary on deacts? WOW SURPRISING EH?
A deact is not a firearm? You keeping trying to make points that people agree on. A deact is also not a food source or a form of transportation.
A firearm is more important than something that is not a firearm? So this deactivated and sectionalised Inglis Bren is less important or worth less than a crappy single barrel CIL shotgun that usually goes for under 200 bucks?
Your logic is allways flawed no matter how you try to vomit it out.

Your line of reasoning? you call the feces your dribbling, reasoning, and how do you determine that those are "history" and a low number D.P Long Branch Sten with chinese script as an example is not. Perhaps you mean "in your opinion" How is a bayonette not in your same league as a deact or as I mentioned a deact grenade. Both were intended to do something they now cannot. Both are highly collectable and high priced depending on the item.
Again your opinion, and it means nothing. As some said a TNW 1919 is complete madness for the prices they go for. Its just a few side plates, some rivets and a bolt group. A wannbe milsurp.

Just don't feed the troll guys. What's the mather, he doesn't agree with you? Well, screw him. It won't change the value of your deacts, nor their history. He's a jackass, let him be that way if he wants to.
Deacts are pieces of history. Troll are pieces of sh**.
