Common questions

Is the Beretta M3P restricted in Canada?

The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Beretta M3P (other, chambered in 12 Gauge, made in Italy) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 160. 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 Beretta M3P?

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 160?

FRN 160 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Beretta M3P 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.
