There are two classes of Firearms licenses: Non-restricted and Restricted which are available to civilians. To possess a firearm license with both privileges, you must take Canadian Firearms Safety Course (Non-Restricted) and Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course (Restricted) course and must pass exams for each class with at least 80% mark. We offer courses for both the firearms classes and exams can be challenged in class after completion of the course on the same day.
This course is an introductory level course and provides license holders privileges of the non-restricted class of firearms. Non-restricted firearms are primarily manual repeating long guns: Rifles and Shotguns. Some semi-automatic center fire long guns also fall in the non-restricted class provided their barrel is greater than 470mm (18.5 inches) in length.
Topics covered in the Canadian Firearms Safety Course:
Majority of the handguns and semi-automatic rifles in Canada can be classified as restricted firearms if they are centerfire semi-automatic firearms with a barrel length greater than 105mm (4.1 inches) unless otherwise classified by RCMP. In order to participate and challenge the exam for this course, CFSC is required as a pre-requisite.
