Relevant contents

Between 2019 and 2020, the government issued more than 20 decrees and executive orders easing the control of and access to arms and ammunition in the country. As at January 2021, these instruments had eased restrictions on gun ownership and the type and number of weapons that can be owned. For example, the muzzle energy limit for "permitted" firearms (subject to less rigorous controls than "restricted" guns) was increased fourfold and people registered as sporting
shooters can now buy up to 60 firearms and 180,000 rounds of ammunition per year.
