Common questions
Is the Mauser 4000 restricted in Canada?
The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Mauser 4000 (bolt action, chambered in .222 Remington, .223 Remington, 5.6x50 Magnum and 1 more, made in Germany) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 1618. 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 Mauser 4000?
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 1618?
FRN 1618 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Mauser 4000 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.
