An “unrestricted firearm” is a regular rifle or shotgun Ottawa apple. Despite this term, many complex restrictions apply to owning a rifle or shotgun in Canada.
Under the new rules after May 18, owners must first contact RCMP for permission before allowing a firearm to be sold, traded, rented, or gifted. This includes personal sales and gifts to the family. For communities concerned about criminal violence and property, the new rules certainly sound like unnecessary busy work.
From May 18thTo transfer or sell a rifle or shotgun, you must provide RCMP with the following information:
- Of the transferor [seller] License number
- Of the transferee [buyer] License number
- Firearm manufacturer, model, type, and serial number (if any)

business You should keep inventory and sales records related to rifles and shotguns for 20 years and share those records whenever police request. Not only does this effectively create a new long gun registry, but it also offloads costs to small businesses.
Section 102 The Firearms Act provides that the Chief Firearms Officer can inspect and copy all store records at any time without a warrant.
Section 101 According to the criminal law, improper records management is a crime that can be punished with five years’ imprisonment.
In simple terms, sections 101 and 102 mean that these records belong to the government, not the firearms store, and if the records of firearms and firearm owners are effectively owned by the government, it is the gun’s. It is a register.
Bill C-71 forces firearms retailers to create, pay, and maintain the equivalent of the new Longgun Registry. Most gun stores are small businesses, so the cost of these additional requirements will result in some outages. This is in addition to the losses forced on firearm retailers by Justin Trudeau’s 2020 ban.
