What was the point of your post, other than to mock somebody who wasn't born into such great knowledge as when you were born?
Well that broke down quickly..

Gr8ness - I don't believe StouffvilleGuy meant any offence, but his post was a little lacking in tact.

He is correct, however - Protection is not a valid reason to own a restricted firearm in Canada. If you use that as your reason, your license will be denied. Once you learn about our storage and transportation laws, you'll find that it's pretty difficult to store it legally and with easy, quick access; our laws are specifically designed to prevent quick, easy access to restricted firearms.
