airsoft transport in public bus
 
i want to know if it allowed to transport airsoft replica in public bus like longueuil or mtl without be put on the ground like a fucking terrorist lol

Madrigal May 30th, 2013 19:11

on your lap? no, of course not -.- concealed in a case? as far as I know, yes.

Privateryan32 May 30th, 2013 19:13

yep concealed in a flambeau case like hard plastic with lock?

Madrigal May 30th, 2013 19:14

hell, I carry mine in a guitar bag. whatever keeps them out of sight.

Hectic May 30th, 2013 19:17

Yeah id opt for a soft case or guitar/bass case as opposed to something that is obviously a gun case. But yes id agree there shouodnt be a law against bringing airsoft on a bus.

Deadpool May 30th, 2013 19:25

And please, don't wear full BDUs and/or your vest on the bus.

Privateryan32 May 30th, 2013 19:32

C'était plus un avertissement en général, pas diriger vers toi.

MultipleParadox May 30th, 2013 20:10

Ya pas de raisons que tu te fasse arreter ou regarder suspicieusement si c'est dans un case

HauntedTank May 30th, 2013 20:29

Why ask us?! Contact the bus/ transport company.
They will tell you exactly how you can transport it or not.

Get a lan party computer bag. I think I saw thermaltake makes one. I'm sure Antec and Corsair do as well.

Take your pick:

http://www.directcanada.com/products...re=THERMALTAKE

@ OP:

Best is to take it in a guitar case. Don't raise suspicion. Bass guitar case plus a small bag for your "amp" and you'll fit in fine. Don't wear your full BDU's or anything like that, just plain street clothes and BDU pants (it's the "fashionable thing" these days with kids and their "military chic fashion"). ie. This is fine http://nyunews.com/wp-content/uploads/2-19-Item-1.jpg (except replace those pants with your real BDU pants and try not to look like a hipster).

EDIT: Amp bag like this: http://www.musik-produktiv.co.uk/pic...1x12-combo.jpg Maybe put some band or music stickers on it to really get into the role that you're just another guy taking the bus.

Acid44 May 30th, 2013 21:09

I just carry mine in the box it came in, but with anything signifying that it's a "gun" duct taped over (warning labels, picture of gun on the side, etc.)

Also, large PC? As in Personal Computer? Or am I missing something here?

Drake May 30th, 2013 21:10

+1 guitar case. A gun case is going to attract tons of attention.

Back in the day, I use to carry my stuff in a guitar case, kept BDU (camo) pants on and combat boots, throw on a heavy metal tshirt or something, everything else in an old backpack. You blend right in.

DaRkCoMmAnDo May 30th, 2013 21:28

PC means plate carrier. As for that, you could always get a duffel bag.

Hectic May 30th, 2013 21:29

Or buy a car then u dont gotta take the bus. JK but seriously do like we all have said just dont do yer hair like the guy in the photo L473ncy linked lol

Ah, thanks.

Stealthee May 30th, 2013 22:09

Hockey bags.

lurkingknight May 30th, 2013 23:45

rectangular guitar case soft or hard... http://www.leihinstrumente.com/Acces...Re.html?cy=CAD

http://www.shop.ca/c/case-guitar-bas...FegWMgodfC8AGw


and a gym bag and or backpack. Nobody looked at me funny when I wore my 5.11 rush bag around. You might get a couple looks if you're in camo pans, but if you can fill a backpack and or gymbag with shit and more, you got issues. I can get most of my gear into a standard sized gym bag.

Immelmann May 31st, 2013 00:00

Rectangular ones still kinda look gun-ish. I know you're not supposed to have airsoft or paintball stuff on the buses in KW, so here having a guitar case that could easily be mistaken for a gun case on the route that passes the field might not be best. Probably the same case there.

I would just buy a big regular guitar-shaped one and cut foam to put stuff in safely and securely.


Hockey bags are also a good idea, although you couldn't mix the two. Latency had a great point with the amp bag for the rest of the gear. I'm going to look into that for myself actually...

5.11 CAMS, All-In-One solution to transport your rifle, gear, plate carrier, helmet and whatever else you can think of all in a wheeled duffel bag.

You could get a branded one for roughly the same price I believe. As in the ones with guitar brands (Fender, Gibson, Musicman, etc) clearly imprinted into the plastic of the case.

And what about pedal boards/roadie cases for gear? These are just the first ones I've found, but I'm pretty sure you could find (or build) them much cheaper, and you'd keep the "just going to a gig" look.

Fender
Ibanez
Pedal Board
Roadie Case

Just my 2 cents.

thpethalK May 31st, 2013 01:48

I dunno about getting a roadie case on a bus lol...that's quite cumbersome considering the bulk and weight of the case alone.

ThunderCactus May 31st, 2013 08:35

1) it's not a replica. replicas are illegal to own. It's an airsoft gun.
2) guitar case

vink May 31st, 2013 11:48

Nothing more Canadian than using a hockey bag. I put my airsoft in a gunbag in my hockey bag along with my helmet, vest and what ever else. My bag even says nhlpa on it.

Gato May 31st, 2013 12:50

I've used duffel bags, guitar case and back when I ran an aks74u, a backpack. Just folded the stock and put her in the backpack with the mags, batteries and bbs

666 May 31st, 2013 13:48

http://pk108377694.trustpass.alibaba...uffle_bag.html

This exact bag can fit 1 full sized AK, set of soft body armor, fairly large rig, camo and bunch of other small things needed to play. Not as comfortable as tactical high end stuff and is heavy when loaded with all those things but hey, it's only 20-30 bucks. I got mine to carry security stuff in 02 or 03, still use it for airsoft... I also seen some guys use large suitcases, ones with wheels to carry smaller guns/gear.

Hahaha.

I was picturing someone lugging a giant desktop and monitor around.

pestobanana June 3rd, 2013 03:31

You should actually do some checks on local bylaws and transit regulations. I know in Toronto there is a bylaw prohibiting the possession of airsoft guns on the TTC, and there is no bylaw, but a ruling that airsoft guns are not allowed on GRT buses in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge area in Ontario.

Con Murder June 3rd, 2013 04:41

My only tip is to go to the pawn shop for a guitar case, the soft style are often called gig bags. Pedal board cases or roadie cases are just to expensive to justify for this purpose. But really now a hockey bag will fit it all plus the gig bag and your teams goalie mask :)

T-Hell June 3rd, 2013 13:40

Just jump on the bus with your gun and yell

DIRKA DIRKA JIHAD
Remember to pay your fare
by the time you are done there will be lots of seats for you to sit down.. :D

No I have transported mine on transit in the Pelican gun case... it's not like it says GUN CASE on it.... never had an issue...

a guitar case probably would be more stealthy and chicks dig a guy who plays guitar so you may get a date too :D

ElbadoKing June 5th, 2013 03:54

I'd say jus use a gaitar case if you gun has a folding stock folded it will fit in most small duffle bags

redneck12 June 10th, 2013 11:23

Here you go a low profile gun case that should work for public transportation.

Then a LOT of Toronto airsofters have been violating that bylaw for MANY years :P

Also: That bag 666 mentions is a good bag, and he's right, it fits full sized AKs, rig, uniform, ammo, batteries and other essentials fairly well, though it does get heavy. I've had one for years and used it in this way more than a few times.

Aware of that.

TV-PressPass June 10th, 2013 12:56

I always have a big duffel or hockey bag for any kind of transport. My neighbours know I own guns and that I airsoft, but I don't want to be giving anybody heart attacks.

Police response to those sorts of threats can be pretty damn serious.

unseen hunter June 10th, 2013 13:05

There is always another solution. See if you can find somebody that is going to the same game that would be willing to pick you up. Just be sure to offer gas money or game fee and find out how they drink their coffee

Brian McIlmoyle June 10th, 2013 13:39

# 1 rule when transporting Airsoft guns.. don't be stupid.

Secure the gun in a container designed for the purpose. If you are transporting inside a pack it should be in it's own container inside the pack.

You are the only person who knows it's not a real gun, so you have to treat it like a real gun.

Everyone that uses public transit in Toronto is breaking a TTC bylaw if they get on a TTC vehicle in possession of an airsoft gun.

of course lots of people do , but if they adhere to rule # 1 above they should be able to do so problem free.

Experience has shown that some people are not capable of not being stupid.

Here's something I found for you guys that are afraid of getting hassled because of your gun case on the bus.
