Restricted firearms in Canada

7,925 records in the RCMP Firearms Reference Table are classified restricted. Every entry links to its full record, including the FRN, action, calibres and country of origin.

Restricted firearms include most handguns that are not prohibited, semi-automatic centrefire long guns with a barrel under 470 mm, firearms designed to fire when reduced below 660 mm by folding or telescoping, and specific models and their variants named in the regulations. Owning one requires a restricted PAL, and the firearm must be registered to its owner.

Restricted status also changes how the firearm moves. Transport generally requires an authorization to transport, the firearm must be unloaded and secured with a locking device inside a locked opaque container, and the permitted destinations are limited. Verify the exact entry below against the firearm in front of you, since variants of the same model line are not always classified alike.
