So, I have my gun. What else do I need to take with me to the range apart from an ATT?
What papers exactly should I be looking for included with the gun? Or does the RCMP mail me everything I need?
The RCMP will mail you some papers and possibly a new PAL (each time I bought a restricted they sent me a new RPAL). Your suppose to have those papers as well as your PAL with you when you transport. If your not a member of a club then you might need permission each time you take it out to an approved range.

When transporting to a registered range you need to have your PAL, your ATT and the registration certificate for each restricted firearm. You will only receive a new PAL card once, after your first restricted purchase; that will include the ATT Special conditions for your restricted firearms on a separate sheet which must be kept with your PAL. Your new PAL number will change from xxxxxxxx.0001 to xxxxxxxx.0002
