Oh wow I didn't realize you can have more then 5 carriages in a shot gun in canada, thanks for that! So if it has a magazine , you limited to 5 plus one In chamber ? Or 5 total ? Also how do you feel about the Mossberg® 590S Optic-Ready Pump-Action Shotgun? Also , if it says 3" chamber , thar means it will fit any shell size up to 3" ? Sorry I just got my PAL license for non-restricted and restricted so I'm super excited!!
Well, the limit is still 5 for any semi auto firearm that can discharge center fire ammunition and which has a detectable magazine. So, a lump shotgun can have unlimited rounds in its magazine because the magazine is not detachable and the action is not semi auto. Or, a bolt action can have a 20 round magazine because the action is not semi auto. This is different when hunting however. When hunting you can only have 3 shells in your shotgun, two in the magazine and one in the chamber.
I have a question....my main address of residence is with my mother at her house but i also rent a house at another location( For traveling work purposes) can i store my fire arms at either location ?
You can, but you might have to be more careful storing restricted firearms as those need to be registered. So you’d need to make sure you store them at the address they’re registered at (your address on file with RCMP)
Things i've done with mine: Hit a soda can at 1,006 yds in just 3 shots using an "educated guess" for my DOPE on my first shot. Hit a soda can at 1,380 yards in 14 shots in a 15mph 90 degree crosswind and horrible mirage. Mirage was so damn bad i only hit the can after making a neck shot that merged with a lower head shot and i could finally see my impact and was able to lower the next shot to hit the soda can. Single impacts were not visible on the white pained silhouette because the mirage was just that bad. Last summer shot a 5 shot group at 750 yards from a mountain top across a windy valley that measured the equivalent of less than 0.5 MOA or less than 1/2". Went 2 for 7 on a competition silhouette at 1,850 yards. All "match" ammo... no hand loads. I cannot recommend this rifle highly enough. Was topped with a NF ATACR 7-35x56 with Mil-xt reticle.
@@canadianoperator I was fortunate enough to spend about 3.5 yrs shooting on BLM land in the state of Utah. I would go multiple times a week some times but usually at least saturdays and sundays. I got really good with a variety of rifles but that Tac A1 is the business. My favorite rifle without a doubt.
Something I noticed is that he didn’t speak specifically to what he would do. But I’m sure there will be something. Because by doing nothing he would alienate a lot of people.
So, I've inherited a firearm (CFSC this weekend!) and I'm looking to store it without making a big investment yet. I have a lockable, heavy plywood chest in a back room that I plan to store the bolt and ammunition in, then store the firearm in another room with a cable lock. Am I correct that the cable lock is extra, and would it be okay to store the firearm in the same room as the locked chest? Also, if I've removed and secured the bolt, can I display the firearm? From a practical standpoint it's been secured against misuse, but not theft, and keeping your guns out of the wrong hands is one of the primary responsibilities of a gun owner, so I'm not sure if the CFO would be happy about an unsecured firearm even if it's been disabled.
@@canadianoperator Thanks. What I'm getting is that for storage that would be combining two valid methods, but if it's "displayed" then the cable lock is mandatory and disabling it by locking up the bolt is extra. I'm not certain as to what the difference is between display and storage but I'm pretty sure I can go by common sense there. I just feel like, with our gun laws, it's always best to double check 'common sense.'
Not just hunting, I spend a lot of time with family and friends in the back country. Most are firearms owners. You just don't know what can happen out there - animal OR human caused. I don't trust bear spray 100 percent of the time. I do carry some with me, though.
Absolutely. Can't ever 100% rely on a spray. Also, great that you have so many friends and family members who enjoy shooting :) It's great to share your passion with others who also enjoy it.
I explain this to friends who say "why do you pack that shotgun, even when just camping?" (Very seldom this happens btw). You can't tell me with 100 percent certainty we won't have a predator encounter. Sure it's very very small, but not zero. If it's a chance of happening, no matter how small, I'd rather be prepared. Same reason why we always wear seatbelts. 12 gauge bear bangers are useful too! They're that first level of deterrent before spray or having to shoot to kill. Plenty of good reasons to bring a firearm in the back country let alone survival situations or hunting. Anyways, rant over. Thanks for the content, Operator 🫡😎
for me it's a pain in the butt all of that trouble finding a place for that cours is a pain too. they always seem to be full and wen you finally get one place you have go to far witch bring more cost then the initial suppose one. there is never a place open near where i live plus all the BS that come with it not wort it.
I got mine in FDE and just took it out to the range. So far, I'm absolutely in love with it. I'm in a more populated area, so my ARs and Aks are a bit of a risk for HD due to overpenetration. But this gun is an excellent addition to any firearms collection.
@@canadianoperator no not if something is wrong with your crown or maybe scope is not mounted level or even poor ammo. Precision is the tightness of the group, accuracy is nearest the bullseye. You can move a tight group over.
@@canadianoperator I was actually shocked at how fast the process was. Totally thought I’d be waiting for months. Just waiting on it to arrive in the mail now, planning on purchasing my first firearm soon.
For pistols, yes. All transfers are currently banned. And it’s not just an OIC anymore. The handgun part is now law which means it will be much harder to repeal by a successive government.
@@canadianoperator I hope Canadians will make the right choice, Trudeau is being conditioned by some US politicians (Gavin Newsom, Kamala… sleepy Joe) 👋
Yeah... I have one of these. And a Sig/GSG and a Walther. Do yourself a favor and buy the Walther instead of this. You won't regret it. Not even accurate. I have met a few guys who got these, and seems I got the good one. These are a questionable quality. Work OK if you get high-velocity ammo, otherwise they just don't. Golden bullet and CCI standard get a malfunction every 15 rounds or so. Do not recommend at all. Unless you are collecting these things, stay away.
After a lot more time with it I'd have to agree. It seems this is a common problem at Chiappa, with owners of other models complaining of quality issues too.
our gun laws were made by ideological idiots looking for political support when they should been based on functionality and common sense by knowledgeable professionals with firearms experience
ALL "Weapons" laws in Canada are mind-numbingly stupid. Nunchucks? Illegal. FFS... you're more likely to hurt yourself than anyone else with them. Canadian laws are made by sissy scaredy-cats with zero common sense. Ninja stars aren't seriously dangerous, but they're illegal. Meanwhile, a cordless angle grinder is WAY more dangerous. Chainsaws anyone? Or heck, let's step up the DANGER factor exponentially... Ford F150 - just how much damage and how many people could a nutjob kill with one of those?!? All laws made out of FEAR are BAD laws.
That's great! Unfortunately though you're in the minority there, as many more firearm owners don't have the luck or privilege of having a family or friends that are so accepting of firearms based on what they see on TV :)
I’ve built a few banks over the decades. Even though there is minimal cash on site, the amount of security measures that are used, makes them so risky to break to break into, that criminals don’t even consider trying to break into them anymore. The vaults are placed on a thickened portion of the building’s concrete slab. 3’ thick with three layers of 18 M rebar that is layed out to a 6” grid. The vaults themselves are modular in design with 20” thick sections, made from concrete that is reinforced with tungsten carbide. The sections have steel frames that are welded/ bolted together. The door has glass packs that can shatter if bumped too hard, let alone drilled into. If those glass packs break, the door locks permanently. The only way in, is to use a 24” diamond hole saw and about 8 hours to cut through one of the panels. The vents of the building have special burglar bars installed and all of the walls of the building are sheathed in fire rated plywood and expanded metal. So if you are going to go above and beyond what is legally required, then anything less than what is described above, is a waste of time and resources.
For one thing, that is an incredibly elaborate and detailed way of describing how one might break into a bank by means if literally listing the steps in which it's made, lol. Secondly, the lengths to which someone wants to go to in securing their firearms is up to them, and nobody else. And if someone wants to go above and beyond, but not to the length of building a bank, then by all means, that person should be able to do what they want as long as they're not breaking the law.
It would be greatly appreciated if a whole video on Section 33 could be made to explain to Canadians the possibility to legal self defense. I appreciate your videos and sincerely hope they develop more traction for Canadians. Lord knows, we've had a rocky history with illegal firearms/smuggling and a misleading/corrupt government and their media lapdogs contriving false narratives. Cheers, from the the East Coast of Canada (Never Forget, Portapique).
While the legal side of tings certainly are not my specialty, I'll definitely keep this in mind. I have spoken to a lawyer about this part of the CCC and unfortunately the more questions I ask the more questions I have. It's one of those inexplicably complicated grey areas that just seem to get bigger and more complex the more I look into it. Thanks for the kind words and for your patronage of the channel.
@@canadianoperator wonder if there's a Runkle video on that? Maybe get him to do one, or a collab video with the two of you in back and forth interview/discussion style?
That’s not an entirely true statement. Read s.33 of the CCC. The force used to stop an attacker must be appropriate given the force applied. While we don’t have explicit laws to give us rights to use firearms for self defense, you can (and absolutely should) use a firearm in self defense if threatened with a firearm. Case law supports this as well. Like the recent case out of Timmons where a man shot one of 5 attackers breaking into his home. They were armed. The man who was shot did not survive. A second degree murder charge was filed by local police and later dismissed in court. This is not a guaranteed outcome, but shows that a judge can interpret that you have used appropriate force given the circumstances to defend yourself, which in itself is within the law according to S. 33.
I agree with Canadian Operator, it's not entirely accurate, however, the process of proving your defense is the punishment that may bankrupt you and set you back a dozen years financially.
That parent company was just by means of acquisition though, right? I don’t think they were always under the Beretta family. But yes Sako’s process is just amazing. It would be a dream come true to one day walk through their factory in Finland.
I remember when this gun was first released, in 2009. People were raving about it, even though it was made from zinc alloy/ZAMAK/pot metal, the grip safety was non-functional, with dreadful internal lock, and a heavy trigger (people were reporting 8 to 9 lbs trigger pull), because it was the only game in town. The next year, 2010, GSG version came out, got working grip safety, no internal lock (but got an equally unwelcome mag disconnect), more parts that could swap with real 1911, etc. And even though the GSG was/is made from ZAMAK as well, the fit and finish was miles and miles ahead of the Chiappa. People were even happier :) Then came the Walther/Umarex/Colt 1911-22 (slide made of aluminum, frame still pot metal), and Browning 1911-22 (all aluminum, no pot metal), the selection became so plentiful, I haven't heard much about the Chiappa ever since, until this video. Feels like 2009 again :)
It’s not abnormal as the barrel should be free floated in this stock. If it’s sitting way too high though I’d double check to make sure you have the barrelled action fully seated. And that the bolt on the bottom is fully threaded all the way through. If you’re still have the issue see if there’s a part that’s too tight on the inside of the stock. Some people have had to do some light sanding or filing. But be careful not to sand or file too much as it’s supposed to be a tight fit.
Also I think if those to hikers that were eaten by a grizzly bear in Banff had a firearm they may still be alive. That story really rattled me when I heard it. They found an empty can of bear spray.
Yeah everytime I go hiking in bear country I always wish I was aloud to carry a hangun with me. Becuase I dobut people would enjoy me walking around with my X95
The only way to have NR firearms in a national park, which is where the two killed were, is to be transporting it through the park as per transportation regs. Good luck un boxing your shotty and loading it while the bear charges. Unless you are a trapper or have a permit issued by parks Canada to carry a firearm for a specific reason. Or of course unless you’re indigenous… The parks Canada regs only mention firearms however. No mention of bows or cross bows…..just saying. If you’re caught though they may argue you are hunting. And as Runkle would say, that would be an “interesting question” how the law would be interpreted in your case. Which means expensive for you.
@@jamesready5 yeah well I’m not taking any chances with law, not looking for trouble. Just saying it would make me feel more comfortable most of the time. I don’t have full faith that my can of bear spray will be completely effective
If you can name one Canadian Olympic shooter who has got an exemption. I will fall over. Only reason I bring it up is because of Alberta’s cfo statement to the senate. The put through a few exemption forms and it was ignored. They still hadn’t gotten a response 18 months later
Yes, heard about this. That's wild. Called RCMP today actually and asked about a business license. It's so convoluted. Even if I were to end up being licensed as a business, and while that might allow me to procure handguns, I wouldn't be able to get an ATT for them to move them anywhere other than my place of business, which would basically mostly defeat the purpose since I'd be using them for training.
@@canadianoperator even if you were to train clients at the range? That’s crazy I was toying with the same idea (business) seeing as I’m always fixing and altering things. Thought I might do it for other people (lots of people have zero mechanical abilities) but after repairs/alterations I’d like to run to the range to verify everything is working correctly. Maybe it’s best to wait till after an election?
@@canadianoperator claiming to be an operator implies your served in a special forces unit. You should consider changing your channel name would hate to be associated with a stolen valour situation.
