In order to display an old fireman in your house do you have to have the firing pins removed by a gunsmith or can you just grind them down or remove them yourself? Any input is appreciated by those who have down this.
Displaying a firearm and deactivating a firearm are apples and oranges. Deactivation modifies a firearm so that it is no longer considered to be a firearm and it must be done just as elk provided.
A wall hangar firearm need not be deactivated. A firearm may be stored/displayed on a wall, in a corner, without deactivation. Check the "Storing, Transporting and Displaying Firearms" regulations.
Display of Non-Restricted Firearms
An individual may display a non-restricted firearm only if it
(a) is unloaded;
(b) is rendered inoperable by means of a secure locking device or is in a container, receptacle or room that is kept securely locked and that is constructed so that it cannot readily be broken open or into; and
(c) is not displayed with and is not readily accessible to ammunition that can be discharged from it.
Would a living room in a locked house qualify?? I'm guessing not. I could put a trigger lock on it, but I was hoping to avoid that.
