To those hoping for carry permits

Does this mean I have to store my pneumatic nail gun in a case?

Gotta lock it

Does you pneumatic nail gun have a barrel and shoot a projectile? I believe nail guns push with a rod a nail into the wood, not barrelled.

It became a lot more muddy a couple years back, technically your airguns and paintball guns need to be stored in a case, not sure if locks are required but they muddied things more.

Huh ?????

Oh my....I lost brain cells reading this thread.

1. Standup, maybe you should sit back and breathe. You're treating this forum like your own personal soap box every time you have a grievance against someone or something. ( Ex wife, Police officer, someone who you think is a biker). Breathe....think before posting.

2. The definition of firearm under the firearms act is a different animal than under the Criminal Code. This was done so that individuals committing crimes with pellet guns, airsoft markers, paintball guns, etc could face a harsher penalty. The CC definition is only triggered when an offense occurs. Much like holding a hammer while having an argument is not on offence, but if you assault the person with it, it becomes assault with a weapon.

Huh ?????

"These air guns are exempt from the specific safe storage, transportation and handling requirements set out in the regulations supporting the Firearms Act. However, the Criminal Code requires that reasonable precautions be taken to use, carry, handle, store, transport and ship them in a safe and secure manner."

This is where things get muddy, that is the text about the Criminal code, Firearms Act vs Criminal Code.
