Future Unknown said:Is a Shotgun with a pistol grip a restricted weapon?
Hey Future Unknown,
If I remember (as of 12-94, but things may have changed?) correctly, no bullpup pump shotguns, as for pistol grips, one has to remember the overall length regulation, but instead of just a PG at the butt end, why not a folding stock. I had an Rem 870P folder w/18" bbl, carried it everywhere in the bush, never a problem. Best to ring a reputable dealer like John Hipwell from Wolverine in Virden MB. He'll know the answers for ya. John is a good bloke, I have know him for going on 20 yrs now. A top dealer at that too, and he might even sell ya something, or will know where to get it.
I would not bother ringing the police, as they won't know, or/and will not commit to a positive answer (no stereotyping intended - I fully support the police in most circumstances), same goes with that mob in Miramachi, you'll end up speaking to a cluless female (no disrespect intended either) who'll quote some manual, or put you on hold as she speaks to her 'team leader'.
Hope this helps you out.
