need help transferring rifle

[bessiedog]

so if I buy a rifle from a guy. He gives me the firearms certificate.

do i need his name number ect when I go to phone and register it?

I thought I just needed the certificate.


the grc website is a bit vague.

any help would be appreciated.

on another note.... is the long gun reg gonna die... or does it look like death on the order paper??

He starts the transfer by calling CFC. He needs his PAL and the registration for the gun plus your name and PAL number. He gets a reference number from the CFC which he gives to you. You call with the ref# and your PAL number and complete the transfer.

Maybe i am wrong but he starts transfer, you finish it. I did not think you even had to have his name if you are buying. He needs your PAL# but they have all the info from that. Can you not buy and sell without ever giving your name ? I have not given my name. People in Mirimichi confirm who it is.

looks like its a bit backwards the way i'm doing it, but thanks.

I was wrong, person who initiates transfer needs name and Pal # from other party but the one completing transfer does not. Called the feds to confirm.

No worries, I do this so often i have the numbers for navigating the automated service memorized.

Actually either buyer r selleR can initiate the transfer first, with the required information that is needed. Once transfer is started a ref # will be given. whoever initiated the transfer first, must give the ref # to other person to finish and complete transfer

if u call the CFC line and get to the transfer line it will tell you all the required information needed before starting a transfer.
