Milsurps / Prohib Gunsmith recommendations

Looking to see if you know of any good gunsmiths around the GTA to get a Mossberg CBC 715T deactivated, I’d much rather hang it up than give it in for destruction.

If you're doing this on your own free will/aren't being paid by ASFCP, then STOP... We don't have to do anything until the Supreme Court makes their ruling, and it could go in our favour anyways to the point you won't have to turn in/deactivate shit.

If you're doing this because of the ASFCP promising to cover a portion of the cost, and you haven't been paid out yet, then withdraw and wait it out. We could win which means then you can keep a fully function firearm...

Edit: Bunch of typos.

I thought you can wait until the Supreme Court decision (past October)

Deadline fir compliance is 3 months after the ruling is given. The case starts some time in November but there's no hard deadline for them making a ruling. Compliance date is 3 months after the end of that process.

Not a single helpful answers just people playing politics. So when future forum users search gunsmiths they’ll find all these keyboard warriors nonsense.

Having said that, the three gunsmiths that i deal with said they won't do deactivations regardless of currently political situation. It's apparently a pretty intensive procedure and not worth the time and money to do.

It's not nonsense to advise against irreversibly deactivating a firearm when there's no real reason to yet.

did he ask should he deactivate? you're behaving like a parent while comlaining about the government doing the same thing. treat other posters on here like the adults they are.
