Re: Self-defence use of a firearm licensed for hunting, sports-shooting or collecting
This.
Forgetting now the knopkieries and riots, if you EDC with your sport or SD firearm, you (under the FCA) are carrying lawfully. But we know that.
Now bringing in the DWA, it states that if the police officer searches you, finds a "dangerouns weapon" and has reasonable suspicion that you have intent to use said weapon to intentionally harm someone, then you are in breach of the DWA. But us upstanding civilians, with EDC, are not in any way in breach of that DWA.

Re: Self-defence use of a firearm licensed for hunting, sports-shooting or collecting
As I have been advised, all non SD firearms have to be carried unloaded, bagged, and separate from the ammunition or stored as such. Section 17 even requires the bolt assembly to be withdrawn if im not mistaken. You will likely have to answer questions as to how you got your non SD weapon ready and operational in that situation as opposed to your licensed SD firearm.

Bullshit. Read some posts before you start making statements.

prescribed.
(3A) Before a prohibited or restricted firearm is stored in terms of subsection (3)(a), it must undergo such reversible non-damaging procedure as may be prescribed in order to ensure that no cartridge can be loaded into or discharged from that firearm.
