Common questions
Is the Mauser 1898 Sporter Type S restricted in Canada?
The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Mauser 1898 Sporter Type S (bolt action, chambered in 10.75x68 Mauser, .250 Savage, .30-06 Springfield and 7 more, made in Germany) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 1635. 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 1898 Sporter Type S?
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 1635?
FRN 1635 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Mauser 1898 Sporter Type S 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.
