What items do you need a PAL in order to buy?

[TorontoGunNut]

I was wondering if I could stock up on magazines before getting my PAL. Is it just ammunition and firearms themselves that require the PAL? Or do magazine sales require a PAL as well?

Thanks all,
A noob

Edit: Nevermind, I found an older thread that answered my question. Sorry for the spam.

Does anyone know of Canadian tire ask for PAL if I need to buy magazine? Still waiting for my PAL but saw ruger 1022 magazines for 21.99. I know legally you dont need PAL to buy accessories but just asking about store policy.

Shouldn't be needed but CTC gun policies are set per store I believe so you'd be better off calling them to ask.

And that's a fantastic price for BX-1 mags!

Update: went to canadian tire today. Bought 2 BX-1 for 21.99 ( in store clearance). No questions asked. My first ever purchase for the new hobby. Still waiting for my PAL.

Q. What items do you need a PAL in order to buy?

A. your RENEWED PAL. :-D

Officially, I think only firearm with S/N on it, ammo, and firearm parts like receiver / main frame.
Other than that, should be ok without PAL.

friend of Mine just called me he is not a gun guy was buying a slide for a birthday present for his son who has a R pal his son had purchased a lower recently poor kid purchased a really pricy black rifle he saved and paid it down got his year membership last February and in may he could no longer go to the range with it .
So he purchased a lower was saving to buy a slide his Dad decided he and his wife would buy him a slide I told them they didn't need a pal so after a long hunt I found them a complete gen 3 G19 they had purchased a New gen4 not knowing there was any difference big thanks to a sponsor here for taking it back no problem , Anyway it was RDSC who had the Slide he put it on his credit card and they emails him saying they needed his DOB and PAL number .
They told him it was there policy on anything more than $750 so they made and his wife send photo's of there DL's wife had current address and His as card was in his name and picture of the Credit card , but initially they were pretty firm on wanting a PAL he was honest and after some discussion this was decided on .
He called me between asking if I would use my PAL and Hold the Slide for his son he was pretty stressed about as they only had one and after the Gen 4 mishap and how difficult it was to find he did not want to miss it .
They did sell it to them but this is a example of how Policy is different in some stores , he showed me the email Chain and I had never seen anything like this in the industry before .
Anyone eles encounter this ?

My advice is don't buy anything unless you have somewhere to shoot it. If want to be a collector that's a different story

You can 3D print a Glock. That's pretty much the best answer I can give you.
