The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the EMF Hartford 1874 Sharps (single-shot, chambered in .45-70 Government, made in Italy) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 140919.

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 EMF Hartford 1874 Sharps?

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 140919?

FRN 140919 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this EMF Hartford 1874 Sharps record in the Firearms Reference Table.
