Is the Diemaco C8CQB restricted in Canada?
The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Diemaco C8CQB (full automatic, chambered in 5.56mm NATO, made in Canada) as Prohibited in Canada, under FRN 122358. 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 Diemaco C8CQB?
Prohibited firearms cannot be acquired by ordinary licence holders. Transfers are limited to holders of the matching grandfathering, and the newer prohibition orders came with a buyback rather than a transfer path. Confirm the position with the RCMP Canadian Firearms Program before going any further.
What is FRN 122358?
FRN 122358 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Diemaco C8CQB 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.
