Common questions

Is the Sears 51-L restricted in Canada?

The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Sears 51-L (bolt action, chambered in .243 Winchester, .270 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield and 1 more, made in Sweden) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 110956. Classification attaches to the specific firearm rather than the model name, so variants with a different barrel length, overall length or action can carry a different class. Confirm the record matches the firearm in front of you, and verify with the RCMP Canadian Firearms Program before any transfer.

What licence do I need to buy a Sears 51-L?

A valid non-restricted PAL, which the seller must verify before the firearm changes hands. No registration is required for individuals, and the firearm can be shipped by a carrier that accepts firearms.

What is FRN 110956?

FRN 110956 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Sears 51-L record in the Firearms Reference Table. Quoting the FRN is the unambiguous way to identify a firearm in a transfer, a registration or an import, because model names are reused across variants that are not classified alike.
