Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course (CRFSC)
In accordance with the Firearms Act, a new firearms safety course
focusing on restricted firearms (primarily handguns) was developed and
implemented on February 1, 1999. The legislation stipulates that individuals
wishing to acquire restricted and/or prohibited firearms must take the Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC) and
the Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course
(CRFSC) and pass the tests OR challenge and pass the CFSC and the CRFSC
tests without taking either course.
Topics covered in the CRFSC include:
-
the evolution of firearms, major parts, types and actions;
-
basic firearms safety practices;
-
ammunition;
-
operating handgun actions;
-
firing techniques and procedures for handguns;
-
care of restricted firearms;
-
responsibilities of the firearms owner/user; and
-
safe storage, display, transportation and handling of restricted
firearms.
