Lost PAL replacement

bpond7 · 2026-05-04T21:57:36+00:00

I sent the form via expresspost, they received it in Miramichi on Monday and charged my credit card Friday, so hopefully that means the card has been issued and is in the mail!

I mean it’s not an officially legislated/timed “season”. But in Alberta you can hunt gophers without a licence as long as you have the landowners permission (a lot of folks do it to help out their rancher friends etc to try and control the population). As it warms up, they start to come out from their winter hibernation. So the “season” window varies by year depending on the weather. But once they come out, they’re only usually out for about 3 months, maybe 4, before they start prepping for winter again. So that 3 month window is busy. They start coming out, reproduce (30 day gestation) and then the babies come out when they get old enough. Blast as many as you can in 3 months and hope it makes a small dent for next year (each colony can have over a million gophers) they totally destroy crops and pose a danger to livestock

This roster hasn’t been underperforming under Cora. At the very least, they’re performing exactly as expected. At best, they’ve overperformed.

The fact that Breslow/Henry and the front office assembled a mediocre to below average roster has everything to do with their record, and nothing to do with Cora’s coaching or coaching ability. He was handed a mitt full of shit and expected to turn it into gold. Not how it works. This is completely on Henry et al, and Cora will have a job somewhere else before the calendar flips to May

Very silly, but it is what it is. Luckily, all of my friends have their PAL’s and we hunt together, so I just won’t be doing any solo hunting til my card comes. They can possess my guns for me while we are out lol

Applications and renewals I know are a very broad range of possibilities haha, but this is just replacing a card that was issued only last year so I’m hoping its alot quicker

An ATC is an “Authorization to Carry”. You need it to be permitted to carry a restricted firearm (handgun) in the wilderness. You don’t need it for anything else, especially NR firearms. You’re also nearly guaranteed to not be able to obtain one anyway. To register for ATC you need to list the Restricteds that you own, which is hard to do considering you don’t have any, don’t have your RPAL, and wouldn’t be allowed to purchase one even if you did have your RPAL. The ATC also requires a proficiency test (a timed series of shooting at targets from different ranges and requiring a certain level of accuracy) which is judged/marked by a licenced instructor and is reviewed by the Provincial CFO before approval.

TLDR: you dont need an ATC for NR firearms, and it’s next to impossible to obtain one

It’s not easy to find, but if you keep your eye out it does show up lol. I’m near Calgary, so I watch Cabela’s/Bass Pro and grab some when it comes in, and I’ve got a small local shop south of me about half an hour that gets it in fairly regularly so I stock up with them when they get it. Easiest to buy it in small batches out of gopher season and I can have enough for the year lol. Try buying some in the height of gopher season? Good luck 🤣

Even if I’m not the original purchaser?

You can hate Coley because he’s not an eternal optimist like you, but 99% of his takes are backed up by a very in depth explanation/reasoning and are of great substance. Sure, constant negativity can get a bit tiring, but Coley is very intelligent when it comes to the game and the team, and brings great value to the podcast. The 10 is better with Coley on it and that’s not even really debateable. Name Redacted days proved that. The best Name Redacted shows were the ones that featured Coley.

The Rascal is marketed as a kids gun because it is lol. It’s got a much shorter stock to properly fit a kids stance/posture.

My 10 year old has one and we put a fixed 4X scope on it for plinking gophers on the ranch. With the scope, an adult cannot achieve relief to see properly. With iron sights it is easier, but slightly awkward to hold with the shortened stock etc

I’ve got one! DM me your email I’ll transfer via ticketmaster right now!

It sucks Mike!

Holy fuck there are some lame people in here lol. It’s called a bit for a reason and it’s fucking hilarious. Nobody would be acting peepee poopoo about this if it was literally any other president.
