    newbie with pal, was embarrassed to talk at gun shop

    Neither of us can shoot well enough to notice the difference between .308 and 6.5 CM. And you can buy it in the Canadian Tire in Kenora. The old guys actually shoot 30-06. If you're new to shooting, why not buy a .22 LR? Way cheaper to shoot. Less distance to walk to your targets. You'll pay...

    Buying a matching gun is a great option. You can probably find one for the price of 3 or 4 boxes of ammo. They're fun.

    It's a bigger diameter and will not fit. Find someone with an Enfield, they'll be grateful you could actually find the stuff.

    The Journey of a Newbie

    There should really be a semi-organized program where people who grew up with firearms take people who got into it at an older age under their wing. There's a lot of little things you take for granted.

    Range Safety Course

    There may be a written test. If you know ACTS and PROVE from the stupid course you never had to take you will pass. It's mostly a formality.

    Transfer certificate or Registration needed for transport?

    1) Show me someone who was charged for going to the range with only the notice of transfer and not the final reg cert, or not carrying that stupid card carrier paper. 2) Don't be the first guy.

    9MM Ammo Recommendation/Suggestions?

    Just about anything with a brass case should work fine. Avoid the Sumbro garbage that showed up for a while. Your sights likely came calibrated for 124 gr.

    Black Friday & Boxing Day for Firearms

    If you're looking for a sale, get on everyone's email list. Be warned that in Canada it can be an issue to find what you're looking for in stock at all, so sometimes you just have to buy what you want when you see it.

    How do I transfer a RESTRICTED fire arm to a buyer

    You can hand the phone over. But they want to talk to them too.

    Transportation questions.

    So do you listen to Barry Manilow, or do you crank it for the benefit of your guns and leave the room?

    PAL/RPAL Timelines

    You are in for a real treat. They are permanently backlogged. Get used to waiting.

    Two Part license question

    I did my course when I was 14. There was only one firearms course, so you could get it and the hunter safety course in one weekend. The instructor charged the lowest fee he was legally allowed to. All firearms were the same ones he used, probably with the firing pins removed.
