    Interesting question, more so that you say FAC instead of PAL. My FAC expired about 30 years ago.
    It's better to have questions you can't answer, then answers you can't question.

    You can't challenge the exam anymore so you will have to take a class and then pass the test and submit the paperwork once passed. Same as before but likely with a lot less classes being offered.... I doubt the CFC has set up anything to make it easier during the pandemic.

    Welcome to CGN. Frame your FAC because it expired many years ago.

    I always encouraged people to get their restricted as well. Many of them say they don't have an interest, or couldn't be bothered getting something that could only visit a range. And I tell them: "That may be; but one day you might change your mind in a hurry, and then you'll be waiting months or a year..." I also tell them to get a good semi auto pistol, too. If the laws change (or cease to exist!), that's the wrong time to go looking!

    I've often thought that combining the licence into 1 single category would have been a good move by the Harper govt.
