Newbie AK47 question

[1340]

I've been away from shooting for a while so I need some info.
I know AK47s are prohibited, but can an owner get an ATT for one?
What about a prohibited handgun?
Thanks.

ATTs cover your prohibitted handguns.

Prohib rifles like your AK need an SAP.....which they will not give you to go shooting.

 

[1340]

SAP? Please educate me.

EXACTLY! Even if your in the military taking it to a military range for a military purpose sanctioned by your CoC if its owned privately, it stays home

 

[stormbringer]

SAP is Special Authority to Possess.


You need one to move it anywhere...

They will not give them to take them to a range.

I just lost my appeal against th ruling last week.............

Not sure if we are going further with the fight. Need a CPC majority to fix it I think.

 

[1340]

So my forethought in buying one before the OIC has left me with a locker queen?

Essentially, if you don't already own an AK, you won't own an AK under the current laws. If you do own one, you can't take it anywhere right now.

Details?

I had a special authority to posess .........it was yet another permit to apply for. I used to fax it in at the beginning of the year and select up to 2 days a week to be able to take it to my club. It was easy enough to get i had it in a couple of weeks once i faxed it in. Then one day i got a letter telling me effective immediately that i can no longer get one or use one. So now i have a gun that sits in the safe and can't do anything with. It's a waste of time having one , but if i get rid of it , i also lose my 12 (5) grandfathering rights. So for now i'll just keep it.

 

[Deckard]

They want you to get rid of it.

So, what was the court case?

 

[tacdriver]

I'm in the same boat.
Norinco 84-S1

 

[Eraser]

same here.....AK47, Volunteer Arms Tommy Gun, HK93.......pisses me off big time!

 

[tacdriver]

This is the silent gun control that
most people don't understand.
Prohibs, after everyone who has one dies,
they are all gone!
Then onto restricted and onto HIGH POWERED
firearms and so on.
This is how they work.
Not all at once,
just a little here a little there.
NEVER GIVE THEM AN INCH..!
Because in the end,
you end up with nothing!

That all depends where you live.

 

[Throttle_monkey1]

I know this is gonna sound bad, but if I had a prohib ak or fal (and also had my 12-x classification), i would take it to the range. #### the beaurocrats. one day you're allowed to go shooting with it, the next day you're not.

 

[tacdriver]

Careful,
Think it but don't write it.

 

[shortandlong]

fight the bad laws don't break them

Canadian gunlaws suck -- they make no sence and they make no one any safer.

Since when does one design of firearm be any deadlier than another of the same action and calibre?

GHEY.

P.S. Move to Iraq -- you can shoot an Ak any time you want...

But is there booze and loose women there?
