It will answer most of your questions about how the process works.

New applicants for a Possession and Acquisition Licence (PAL) must successfully complete the Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC) and/or Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course (CRFSC) course and exam prior to applying for their licence. Participation in classroom training is mandatory and applicants are no longer eligible to complete a challenge test. 

Firearms Safety Education Service of Ontario (FSESO) instructors deliver the CFSC and CRFSC courses and exams in the province of Ontario. These courses are designed to familiarize students with the safe use, handling and storage of firearms and ammunition.  

The courses are introductory and cover the basics of firearms safety including, but not limited to:

  • basic firearms safety practices

  • ammunition types and storage

  • operating firearm actions

  • safe handling and carry procedures

  • responsibilities of the firearms owner/user

  • safe storage, display, transportation and handling of firearms

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

Firearms One-Stop (FOS) $450.40 (HST, textbook & exams) each person.

This course combines both the CFSC and CRFSC over 2-days. The first day is the CFSC (long guns, rifles and shotguns) the 2nd day is CRFSC (restricted rifles, shotguns & handguns). After this course you can apply for PAL/RPAL, and you will have the licence to use and buy MOST types of guns legal in Canada. The price of this course includes all the taxes, textbook, and the governmental discount on the CRFSC. It is the cheapest and quickest way to get both the PAL AND RPAL.

Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC) $237.30 (HST, textbook & exams) each person.

This course covers all the safety procedures and background on the use of non-restricted firearms (most rifles and shotguns). These guns can be used for hunting, shooting at the range, private property and crown land (where it is safe and legal to discharge firearms). By the end of the course you will receive the training and paperwork to apply for your non-restricted PAL (possession and acquisition license). The course takes a minimum of 8 hours and the price includes all taxes and course materials.

Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course (CRFSC) $192.10 (within 30 days or less of CFSC) or $237.30 (after 30 days of CFSC) (HST & exams) each person.

This course covers all the safety procedures and background on the use of restricted firearms* (ie. shorter rifles, shotguns & handguns**). These types of guns can ONLY be used an an official shooting range / club.

By the end of the course you will receive the training and paperwork to apply for your restricted PAL (possession and acquisition license). To complete this course, you must have completed the CFSC course or possess a valid PAL. This course takes 6 hours and the price includes all taxes and course materials. There is a discount if you complete this course within 30 days of the CFSC.

*Restricted firearms cannot be legally used for hunting, they can only be shot at an approved shooting range.

DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CFSC CRFSC COURSE MANUAL PDF

Part of your course fee includes a hard copy of the CFSC / CRFSC course book / manual, which you will receive the first day of the course ($21.00 includes HST)

If you want to get a head-start and be prepared for the courses, here is a link to download the PDF copy of the CFSC / CRFSC manual. Make sure you are on WIFI before you click the automatic download (11.8MB)! Although all the material in the book is valuable information; my favourite part is MODULE 5: AMMUNITION. It is the longest, most technical chapter of the manual.
