My husband (American) wants to bring over his Rifle for hunting and target shooting purposes. Does anyone know what needs to be done for him to be able to do this? License? Registration? Through who?

Thank you so much,

- AngelB

EDIT; Title changed because it was terrible. LOL!

Re: Immigrating with a Rifle.

Hi, he will have to apply for a Firearms Acquisition Permit before he can bring them across. This requires a back ground check etc. He will likely have to register it at the POE.
