Why take the Course

You need to complete this Firearms Safety Course before you can apply for a Possession and Acquisition License.  The PAL is required to have or acquire a Firearm in Canada for any purpose.
Once you complete the course I have all the forms to give you so you can apply for your PAL.

The aim of this Course is to teach you how to handle firearms safely.
Hopefully along the way I will also give you some hints that will make your shooting adventure more fun and enjoyable.

There are 2 types of PALs

Non-Restricted,

Rifles and Shotguns

Restricted,

Handguns and

short barreled rifles and shotguns

Happy Clients

“Hey Rick, thank you for the amazing course and explaining everything in detail, I was never good at paying attention in classes due to my adhd but somehow everything was very easy to follow and memorize. Thanks again for being a great teacher!”

Dylan H.  April 2025

“This was my first experience up close with firearms for almost two decades, and Rick made the learning process enjoyable. He is patient, clear, concise, thoughtful, and truly cares about the students being safe users and representatives of the community. Rick understands that students have vastly different knowledge levels of this subject, and offers a wide range of props to help every type of learner. Indeed, he covered an incredible amount of content with ease, and made the process, including the exam, a positive experience. 
I highly recommend Rick."

"I had the pleasure of taking my non-restricted PAL course with Rick. It was a great day, I learned so much and would highly recommend his courses to anyone seeking their PAL. He is very attentive to his students and prepares you well for the testing. He truly goes above and beyond"
