*restricted and non-restricted (but don't bother mentioning NR, it's included)

No range membership required, so online input your closest or joining X club

Also if you cite collector they will ask for a short essay on your collection and how the guns are significant to you.

You could always join Silvercore. It is $49 a year and they let you join from anywhere in Canada (Though they are located in BC).

Okay. I was going to say I've seen a number of posts on here and on CGN that talk about this club and using it to buy restricted. But I do not know anyone offline that is a member.

Anyways I hope it all works out for you.

In Ontario you don't need a club membership to own restricted guns from a store. I assume it's the same for private sales as well.
