Tactical Imports GM6 LYNX SEMI AUTO .50 BMG BULLPUP Promo Video!

Serious question....when someone buys something like this, do you record their name for any reason?

Warranty
proof of purchase
etc...


I think you know where I'm going with this.

Lets say someone were to walk in, show pal, pay cash and leave....that possible? No names recordered, etc.
 
No idea how warranty is handled at tactical imports, but...

Buying a Non-Restricted *new* from a dealer has always had a name recorded, pal-info, etc. linked to that firearm and it's always been that way even before the now-dead-registry; however, this info is kept with the dealer as is law (not a federal database).

Now a private sale is different, but, if the firearm is ever found later (or used in a crime) and no one was attached to it physically, the police will do their old-fashioned investigating and eventually find out who the original buyer was (remember it was sold at one point from a dealer to a customer so a record is available.)

The original buyer (who sold it) better have a good answer when the police show up asking "Guess what, we found your gun. Explain."
Remember, owners need to report lost or stolen guns exactly for the above reason. So yeah, it's definitely a good idea to know who you are selling a non-restricted to.

Not trying to be a ####, but a little surprised by the implied context of the original post. No dealer wanting to remain out of prison would be selling guns to customers without keeping a record of the transactions. Unfortunately ;)
Remember, in Canada owning a gun is a privilege, not a right.

Anyway, that's how it works. Hope that answers some question(s).

Cheers~

Impressive rifle, but for that kind of dough as technology progresses, I'd rather buy a much more advanced rifle that fires smart bullets with accurate precision.

Implied context deals with the implications of future bans, prohibitions or gun grabs...

They'd know exactly who they're selling it too (read above, SHOW PAL).

Do you have your name recorded when you buy a cordless drill or any other tool?

We typicaly record the pertinent info required for the transaction, but it can be deleted upon customer request.

As for warranty, it wouldn't matter who owned the firearm in question since we're the exclusive importer and warranty is transferable.

"Guess what, we found your gun...please Explain"

This wouldn't get the LEO's very far actually..."Not my gun, I sold it!"...{LEO} "Who did you sell it to!?"..."Don't remember, I haven't had that gun for years"...{LEO} "Where were you on such and such a night?"..."Nowhere near anywhere that would implicate me with whatever happened on that night with that gun, now I'd love to help you but I don't like where this conversation is leading, so for my part it is over. Have a nice day."

The LEO now has a choice to bring the individual in for questioning, or lay charges, either scenario has him coming out looking stupid.

Thank you. No ill intent, just cringe at the thought of a $20k gun and glass being "liberated" by some group of Nancies, if 50bmg ever were classed as far to dangerous for us normal folk
 
Yeah I would be worried about this gun being reclassified its just too cool. I wonder why i never see a gunnut winning the lotto. This would be the inteview, what will you buy? "a huge acreage and a lot of guns and ammo.
 
is there a dedicated scope for these kinds of rifles ? im sure everyone agrees that you do not put a ####ty 200 $ scope on this when you buy it...
 
We live in a country with some very strange firearms laws. Let me explain.

In Canada this is considered a restricted firearm. You have to register this firearm so the government knows you possess it, you must ask the CFC for permission to leave your house with it, and you are only allowed to shoot it at CFC approved ranges:

In Canada is this is a non-restricted firearm. These do not have to be registered, you can take it outside whenever you please, and, depending on which province you reside in, you can shoot it anywhere it can be done safely.

Don't get me wrong, I am not arguing that this rifle should or should not be restricted. But I find it somewhat foolish that a long barrelled, .22 LR, revolver is a restricted firearm, while a semi automatic, .50 BMG, anti-material rifle is non-restricted.
 
Hey Vorsicht. Come to toronto and throw a rock... It will most certainly hit a liberal voter in the head. Ask that person. I'm sure they would have plenty of reasons.
