Is the Webley MARK III Service restricted in Canada?
The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Webley MARK III Service (revolver, chambered in .455 Revolver, made in United Kingdom) as Restricted in Canada, under FRN 23400. 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 Webley MARK III Service?
A restricted PAL, and the firearm must be registered to you before you take possession. Transport generally requires an authorization to transport, and if this is a handgun the October 2022 transfer freeze applies to most transfers between individuals.
What is FRN 23400?
FRN 23400 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Webley MARK III Service 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.
