Cost to upgrade from PAL to RPAL in 2018

Sugarkryptonite said:
Also, sorry to post again, but instead of making a new thread, does anyone know if the law 9 course is mandatory to own a handgun? I just did my regular safety course, and was thinking about doing my restricted course as well, but will not have time this year to do the law 9 course. Would I be able able to get my RPAL by just taking those two courses and not the law 9 for now? If so, that would mean I can not legally own a handgun, or if I could, I can not legally transport it back to my house, is that correct?

You in Quebec??
 
I personally... not a friend of a friend of some guy... I personally upgraded my freshly renewed PAL to an RPAL this year, I had renewed it I think around December and upgraded around May?. I think my PAL was roughly 5 months renewed when I sent in for my RPAL. They charged my credit card $20.
I am in Saskatchewan if it matters. Same expiry date as I had prior to the upgrade, it didn't add any extra time. Still expires in 4 years from now come December.

Got all that, but do you need the law 9 course to obtain the RPAL card in your hand? Is it a requirement on the application form?

You have to do your RPAL first, then the Law 9 course. You can’t be member of a shooting club without having done the law 9 course. And you can’t buy or own restricted without a club membership and law 9 course

Take note that if you take the law 9 course you must go shoot once a year otherwise it expire and you have to do the course again.

Thanks for the response. EDIT: Apparently you cannot own a restricted without law 9.

You can’t be member of any shooting club without your law 9. And you can’t aquire restricted firearm without being member of a shooting club. So no you can’t own restricted firearm without your law 9

Edit: this include everything to answer OP question and future question

Thank you, that is what some other people have told me as well, no restricted ownership until law 9 is passed. I've seen that page many times but no where did I see it talk about getting an RPAL or it being necessary for it...anyway that was answered by the people here already.

It says:

Are there prerequisites for completing the Bill 9 competency test?
You must have attended the Canadian Restricted Firearms Safety Course to register.

Mandatory for a Possession and Acquisition Licence (PAL)? Or for work?
No. However, it is mandatory if you want to join a shooting club or acquire a restricted firearm.

But doesn't talk about RPAL... :bangHead:

You are making this complicated by yourself. it is really simple

Do your RPAL course and apply for RPAL
Do your Law 9 course
Join a shooting club
Buy restricted
The end

A PAL and RPAL is the same thing in the eye of the gov. An RPAL holder is simply someone with a PAL that is allowed to own restricted by having the restricted class added to his PAL. That quote right here is exactly the answer you keep asking over and over for
