    Leaving Canada

    Hello Members,

    I have a RPAL, NRPAL that is due for renewal in October.
    Owner of 2 handguns and a shotgun.
    I am leaving Canada next month.

    What are my options to give up guns and the license?

    Please advise. Appreciate all responses in advance.

    Thanks,
    Newbie 2019

    There is no reason to give up your licence. Just don't renew it.
    Sell the shotgun here or the other common places.
    Businesses can still buy restricted items.
    Maybe a gun range near you needs a couple range guns?
    Of course you won't get anything near what they are worth.

    why can't you take them with you?


    are you leaving for good, if not why can't you ask a licensed friend to hold them for you until you return?

    Depends on where you are going I suppose.

    If you are going to New Zealand, you might be screwed: best to sell the shotgun here and try to get the handguns to a gun store or range somehow.

    if you are going to the USA or even some other parts of the world: you may be able to import them if they are worth it to you (sentimental or cash value), and sell the shotgun unless it to has value.
    Anyone who screams 'FREEDOM' but does not give it, especially freedom from something someone else has freedom of, they are the true traitors to all freedom: they don't want freedom, they want privilege, they want to abuse, they want to violate... and they want to do it with impunity.

    To ensure these weapons are safely and permanently removed from our communities they must be surrendered to the Gov without delay.

    Sell them to gang bangers - they are more trustworthy than the Liberals or Turdou

    Do not say such things, even in jest!
    Gun Control is about making it unlawful for you to use, carry, or possess a firearm.

    All restrictions/prohibitions on the use, carriage, or possession of firearms must be repealed.

    Middle ground?

    What middle ground?

    If you are forced to surrender a firearm, strip it to the receiver and send that in only
