Hi. I'm your good Canadian neighbor to the north.
In Canada, you can haul around a sword anywhere you please, or even a knife over 6 inches, as long as it is not concealed.
In Canada, you have to be 18 to acquire your FAC, and then, you need somewhere to store it (IE at home. I asked at a Gun Store if there were places I could store my gun, but apparantly, no. HAS to be at home). While I am over this age, I lack a house to store it. In fact, my current residence won't even allow for an AIR RIFLE, or even a CROSSBOW. So I have to move out first. Once I do move out though, then the fun can start, once sufficent funds have been acquired for both living on my own and a rifle.
In Canada, certain Rifles, and all examples stemming from them, are banned. Now when I say banned, I don't mean the American "Pony up 200 dollars and you can own it" banned, I mean the American "I'm not selling you a Tank" banned. There are only like a handful of receivers that aren't banned in Canada (H&k SL8, H&K SLB 2000, that's only from what I saw looking at the gun store, but there is a nice honking huge and complex list here on banned weapons;

Another little fun Canadian firearms fact; You HAVE to have a planned travel route for your restricted firearms (Pistols). That means, in order to move it from A to B You need to file a piece of paper which says "I plan to move this from point A to point B". Now, in some cases, you have to file a SPECIFIC route, meaning ANY deviation, no matter how small, is punishable by fine, if not by liscence suspension. In other cases, you can file the permit with just point A and point B, and anything, within reason, is allowed. But if you are like 5 miles off? Screwed. Got lost? Screwed.
This has been "Fun Canadian firearms facts" with CM2k. :wink:
PS; I was planning on buying the SniperCentral rifle, specifically for the cheap post accurazied price, and the .300 WM. That and it shoots a 1/4 MOA with Factory rounds. I'd be hard pressed to replicate that, with my (And most Canadian dealer's) limited experience.
PPS; I suppose I am to the West of Muzzleblast.
