Is the Thompson/Center Encore 209 x 50 Magnum restricted in Canada?
The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Thompson/Center Encore 209 x 50 Magnum (single-shot, chambered in .204 Ruger, .223 Remington, .243 Winchester and 8 more, made in United States of America) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 37833.

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 Thompson/Center Encore 209 x 50 Magnum?
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 37833?
FRN 37833 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Thompson/Center Encore 209 x 50 Magnum record in the Firearms Reference Table.
