Firearms Licence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Firearms Licence (also known as a Gun Licence) is a licence or permit issued by some Governments (typically by the police) of a country (or state or municipality thereof), that allows the licensee to buy, own, possess, and use firearms, often subject to a number of conditions or restrictions, especially with regards to storage requirements or the completion of a firearms safety course, as well as background checks, etc. Firearms licenses are not required in all jurisdictions.

The permit or license scope varies in what firearm(s) and or activity(s) they allow the holder to legally do with their firearms. For example, a licence may allow the holder to engage in hunting, target shooting, and/or collecting, or permit the owner to own firearms for self defence, carry a concealed firearm, or operate a business (such as being a gun dealer or a gunsmith). Rifles, Shotguns, and Handguns may require separate licences (depending on jurisdiction).
