Common questions

Is the Mauser Sporter restricted in Canada?

The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Mauser Sporter (bolt action, chambered in .25-06 Remington, .280 Remington, .284 Winchester and 17 more, made in Germany) as Non Restricted in Canada, under FRN 78233. 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 Sporter?

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 78233?

FRN 78233 is the Firearm Reference Number the RCMP assigns to this Mauser Sporter 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.
