        • 猎牌是不是只要花钱买,就行啦?
          • 呵呵,猎牌比枪牌难考多了。
    • 完了,看来我喜欢的M4A1又短又是军用武器,是彻底没戏了。如果是收藏的话licence会不会容易拿到些?
      • M4没问题,前两天看到一支,11.5inch barrel,要价2000,晚了一步。可惜了。

    • 请问老大,想买一把散蛋枪野营露宿时防身用,碰上打劫的就给一枪,这个想法可行否?
      • 恐怕你会很惨。你需要证明对方是抢劫,还要证明你有必要开枪。否则你就是manslaught.
      • 你是不想过了。即使对方是真抢劫,你也得摊上民事官司。
        枪的作用,对坏人来说,威慑效果远大于实际作用。野营时,如果真碰上野兽,救命是没问题,但不排除你也许会被警方起诉,当然这也是值得的。
        最近的几个case,警方都没起诉。
        不过,我不建议出门时车上装支猎枪。也许会给自己带来麻烦。
        不久前,多大射击俱乐部的一位,非法携带上膛的手枪,在地铁站被逮捕了。

      • Y.
        • then if people go hunting with you, do they still need one? btw, what did you get in previous hunting activities?
          • Not really, but they can not discharge a firearm w/o hunting licence.
    • if I buy from u, do i still need license? :-)

    • ZT, 一个美国人写的关于加拿大枪支管理的文章。
      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛As a shooter and recent immigrant to Canada, I find the
      gun laws here breathtakingly restrictive. I suspect,
      however, that U.S. lawmakers are working toward Canada's
      lead in this area, so stay alert!

      I recently completed a $150, 18-hour instructional
      course (8am to 5pm Saturday and Sunday) which gives me the
      privilege of APPLYING to the federal government for a
      Firearms Acquisition Certificate. The FAC is good for 5
      years, and then must be renewed, probably with another 18-
      hour, $150 course.
      If and when I receive it, then, the FAC allows me to
      purchase (or bring across the border) a Restricted or
      Unrestricted firearm; but then another permit, the Permit to
      Carry, is necessary before I am allowed to transport that
      firearm to my home. And a third permit, the Permit to
      Transport, is necessary if the firearm is Restricted.

      There are three classes of firearms in Canada:
      Prohibited, Restricted, and Unrestricted.

      Prohibited firearms are all fully automatic weapons or
      those which can be easily modified to be fully automatic.
      Also all military sniper-type weapons and assault rifles
      with a magazine capacity greater than five rounds. Mace,
      tear gas, Taser stun guns, pepper spray, brass knuckles,
      switchblade knives, belt-buckle knives, and all oriental
      self-defense weapons such as nunchuks, are also in the
      prohibited class.
      The only civilians allowed to own prohibited weapons
      are bona-fide collectors who must have proven their
      expertise, and also agreed to permit unannounced visits to
      their collections by police authorities.
      A licensed collector can sell his/her prohibited
      weapons only to another licensed collector, or else turn
      them in to the police for destruction. No new prohibited-
      weapons collectors are being authorized. Consequently, as
      collectors pass away, their collections are concentrating in
      fewer and fewer hands and, ultimately, when the last
      collector dies, all of those weapons will be destroyed.
      It's the law.

      Then we come to Restricted, which includes ALL pistols.
      Even my replica .44 Colt black powder cap-and-ball? Yes.
      ALL pistols, even flintlocks.
      Also Restricted are the AK-47 and AR-15 rifle families
      (even though with 5-round magazines). Curiously, Ruger's
      Mini-14 with full wooden stock and 5-round magazine is
      Unrestricted. And, semi-automatic pistols must have
      magazine capacities no greater than ten rounds. Larger-
      than-legal-capacity magazines must be pinned to limit their
      capacity.
      Also, the ONLY justification for owning a restricted
      weapon (single-shot, revolver or semi-automatic) is for
      competitive shooting. Don't even MENTION self-defense as a
      justification. Call 9-1-1 for self-defense. So, since the
      pistol will be used only for competition, it stands to
      reason that the pistol owner must be a member in good
      standing of a pistol club. No permit is available unless
      you are.
      So the owner of a Restricted firearm, a pistol, say,
      must have the FAC, a federal restricted firearms
      registration certificate, and the permit to carry, which
      allows him to carry his pistol ONLY from his home to the
      range and back with no stops in between. While being
      transported the pistol must be unloaded and be disabled with
      a trigger lock or something similar, be in a locked case,
      and the case must be locked in the trunk of the car. Triple
      locking is the law.

      At the owner's home the pistol must be stored in a
      vault, or else be disabled with a trigger lock and stored in
      a locked, secure room, with the ammunition stored
      separately.
      Since the Permit to Carry is good only between one's
      home and the range, what do you do if you want to take your
      pistol to the gunsmith, say? Then you must go to your local
      police station and request a Permit to Transport. This
      permit, generally good for two hours and particularly
      describing the weapon to be transported, allows you to carry
      that pistol to the gunsmith. When he finishes with it, you
      go and get another Permit to Transport in order to bring the
      pistol home again.
      Sanctions for those caught violating Canada's firearms
      laws are Draconian -- ten-year jail sentences, for instance.

      Unrestricted firearms are long guns; rifles and
      shotguns, neither of which can have a magazine capacity
      larger than five rounds. There is also a prohibited list
      here, which includes the the Street-Sweeper shotgun and its
      siblings and a long list of military-style rifles and
      carbines.
      Necessary paperwork are (only!) the FAC and Permit to
      Carry. Membership in a shooting club is not a requirement,
      but, unless you own a lot of land, there's noplace else to
      shoot. The weapon must be transported unloaded and either
      disassembled or locked, and out of sight in a locked
      vehicle. Carrying a rifle or shotgun in a pickup gun rack
      is permitted only when the owner is physically in the
      vehicle.
      Pellet guns with a muzzle velocity of over 500 fps are
      considered firearms, so would be either Restricted or
      Unrestricted, dependant on whether they're pistols or
      rifles. Somewhat curiously, .22 caliber rifles are not
      restricted as to magazine capacity. All .22 caliber
      pistols, however, are Restricted, and can have no more than
      a 10-round magazine capacity.

      Eighty percent of Canadian firearms deaths are
      suicides, 15% accidents, and 5% homicides.
      Nonetheless, Canadian politicians are again vying to be
      the loudest in calling for far more restrictive (!) firearms
      regulations. Look out America.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
