In Canada, having a criminal record can impact your ability to obtain a gun license. Individuals with serious criminal convictions, such as those involving violence or firearms offenses, are generally prohibited from obtaining a license. However, if the conviction is for a minor offense and sufficient time has passed, it may be possible to apply for a license through a process that includes a review of the individual's background and circumstances. Ultimately, the decision rests with the Chief Firearms Officer in the respective province or territory.
