Temporary firearms storage in the United States we have an couple options for you.

I understand the sentiment. I don't understand the upshot of this kind of martyrdom. This is like self immolation on the steps of the parliament.
A selfish part of me thinks that if others are willing to shoot it out with state, the state will rethink its approach and I might get to keep my restricteds. But I am not willing to shoot it out with the state over my restricteds, so I cannot encourage others to do it.

I am not sure what your talking about in regards to "shoot out" that has no place here (maybe i am reading you wrong). I am simply saying there is no scenario in which I will participate in a buy back or hand over my property with my hands. If my guns leave my home it will be through a broken down door.
 
If this happens and then we get them back like the long gun registry failure, could this be the basis for a good class action lawsuit for both loss and harassment?

Could this lead to a group buy of new doors? In this case do we have a choice of colors? :eek:)

Have to make some humor out of this perverse state exercise in imbecility . How did we compensate Japanese Canadians for the govt theft an looting during WW II for a problem they played no part in? When did we apologize to this minority? Here we go again, or better still how about our government who works for us (some of them don't think so*) just not do it in the first place. On this point, I have no sense of humor

Let's ignore the "shoot out" option, which may be forced upon those who are selected for a no-knock entry.
I think that before the state sends agents to break down doors, they will revoke PALs, suspend driving licenses, levy fines, and issue arrest warrants. People will end up going to jail for driving without a license (and therefore without insurance), having liens placed on their homes and cars, and their wages garnished due to the debt accrued from not paying the fines. Lives will be ruined.
Worth it just to make a point that doesn't even inconvenience the state, and end up losing your restricted rifle anyway? I don't think so.
 
I won't be using this service.. But that is my choice
Some of the haters here are missing the point..
I'm sure very few will be sending their whole collection unless they are dual citizens or have the means to immigrate
But some that want to send their irrreplaceable heirlooms to avoid the gun grabbers smelter
Go for it.. being proactive is a wise move
You can always bring them back if the political climate changes
But with another million liberal voters expected into Canada in the next 4 years?
We just don't have the numbers..same is happening in the U.S.A. ..why do you think the Dems want open borders

One of the most intelligent things I've read on any of these forums. Possible Liberal government forever, the math is there.
 
So here's a thought.. first nations land...we in the Okanagan have many homes either single or multi type on FN land
With multi year leases.. I don't... just don't feel comfortable having another layer of government to answer to
But maybe store at a complex there??
 
At one time, as a licenced importer and dealer, you
could keep guns in a duty free zone and import them as you needed them or export them instead.
I have done it , but that was year's ago
 
Your post was irrelevant to this thread, it not only shows your maturity level but establishes you have a single digit IQ.

:rolleyes: That was unnecessary... but I suppose the original comment is proof that no good deed goes unpunished. As far as I'm concerned, it's nice to have options and I'd hold off on lambasting those who are trying to help you, regardless of whether or not they are turning a profit.

I think what might strike some members as weird is the optics.

Right now you're changing $25 USD to import firearms to Canada.
Under your original post you give option 1 as importing a firearm *to* the US at $200 CDN, and return it for $100CDN.

Guessing that the US government charges more money to important firearms than it does to export them, hence its reflected in the price?

I'm curious about the numbers.

$32 Canadian to important a gun from irg.

$200 Canadian to import to the US and $100 CDN to get it back.

Doesn't matter either way. Import export business is interesting.

Does that $25 import fee not apply to guns that IRG probably imports on a pallet? I imagine there is leeway on the importation fees on guns that are imported in bulk and, I'm guessing, considering the numbers, maybe money made on importation fees on bulk imports might trickle down to some of the custom imports as I'm sure there are many more bulk importations than custom importations.

Now consider the possible flood of one off imports that IRG would have to deal with. Individual imports and exports on guns that are already privately owned. Probably a lot more paperwork and a lot more fees to be paid to the gubbermint on both sides.

This is conjecture but I'm willing to give IRG the benefit of the doubt on this one and also extend my gratitude for providing a service that, so far, isn't offered by any other company.... whether or not I use it. So maybe hold off on the s#it slinging....
