Is this a NR model?

No it's the 16" restricted, The NRs will take longer to arrive. GOV already knows we have them anyways so no difference to me as I dont shoot on crown land or plan on hunting. Just putting holes in paper.

Newbie here....please explain how the govt knows what NRs you own? I guess they would know what you bought at some point?

Whenever somebody buys a firearm their license and the firearms information is sent to the CFO and the business also keep record its said that the information isnt stored but do you trust them?

Its even less specific than buying - its whenever your PAL is checked, which can and does happen without a purchase ever taking place.

What are other ways your pal gets checked without a purchase?

You could meet someone for a purchase, they verify your PAL, you change your mind before the sale and you both part ways. This, on paper appears the same as if a sale had occurred.

No law against checking a PAL. Maybe you're selling a magazine or a barrel and want to be sure the dude has a licence or you like having the option to trade guns around your hunting buddies a lot so you verify with your friends every few months ... or maybe you just like getting emails.
