Restricted storage question?

2A3EAB22-E95A-446F-A4B7-185F03766263.jpgI’m sure this is what you think a safe is, it costs $200.
I can buy a keyed gun safe from CT for $400, which is , by your definition a locker.
At the end of the day, it’s each individuals choice,

Speak for yourself. I have an electrical cabinet that is lockable. Letter from the CFO says it meets the definition of a safe. Maybe it’s you who chooses to not understand?

I will not win this one but i did buy a Browning 58 guns safe that weigh 800 pounds, i feel safe.
 
This argument is stupid....

Trigger or cable lock your restricted and put in a $90 C.T safe in a false wall (hidden).

To the guys that think they are going to use a Restricted to defend their property or their life....ask Gerald Stanley how that went?


Gerald Stanley to pay $3,900 and receive 10-year ban on gun ownership for improper firearm storage. Gerald Stanley has been fined $3,000, plus a $900 victim surcharge, and banned from owning firearms for 10 years after he pleaded guilty Monday to improper storage of firearms.Apr 16, 2018

Huge difference between improper storage and self-defense.
 
Which section of C-68 provides for using your restricted firearm for self-,defense?

Good luck with that in Court in Kanada.....

Better off to use a non-restricted....

I still think if the courts wanted to, they would still hit you with the same/if not worse charges that Gerald Stanley got, even for using a non restricted to defend yourself. Every situation is different. But still worth it to defend yourself and family regardless of charges
 
But you can legally discharge a non- restricted outside of the approved range.....

The ONLY place you can n load and discharge a "restricted" legally is on a approved range.

There is no provision in the C.C to use a restricted firearm for self defense.

A farmer is allowed to use non-restricted to defend his property and animals from pests or predators....but not a restricted.

I only bring this up because I think some on here feel they would be justified in using a restricted handgun to defend their home.

Be ready to lose your guns for 10 years....

And what about an antique that is deemed a non firearm, ever thought of that. You have to think further than the tip of your nose.
 
Well, not that anyone will do this but if you want to be 100% sure you are legal, get the cfo AND the rcmp to come look at your storage setup, if they sign off on it, you will be SAFE in court as well as at home! Find a knowledgeable rcmp to inspect as well as the cfo!
 
I dont plan nothing, i have a brand new Louiseville Slugger i bought in the state, i will be ok if i can swing once or twice, if something is to happen better be in NH everynight i load my Ruger Alaskan snubby 44 mag and it's just beside me on the night table.

Your going to use a flintlock pistol or blunderbuss for home-defense....I am confused?

To the original poster....

Just trigger lock your restricted and store in a locked container.....

Forget all the other b.s.
 
If the laws were so clear cut, there wouldn’t be any need for lawyers.

So what makes a safe a safe. or even whether or not you should defend yourself and your family with a restricted, non-res or prohib, really depends on the reasonableness of your decision. Do what you think is right, and always err on the side of caution. When it comes to the lives and safety of your family, I assume you know which side to err on.

If they charge you, hire a lawyer and hope for the best.

What’s important is you enjoy our hobby now, or that you are alive to defend yourself in court, with all your family and loved ones healthy and present in court to support you.

Like anything in life, be reasonable.
