Identification of Surplus

Public agencies are responsible for managing their protected firearms stocks. Clear requirements for the disposal of surplus firearms will be established when the amended Public Agents Firearms Regulations enter into force

The Royal Canadian Mounted Poilice (RCMP) currently destroys all surplus firearms as a matter of policy. As part of a recent Small Arms Replacement Program, the RCMP destroyed more than 20,000 surplus revolvers in the manner specified by the Public Agents Firearms Regulations

The Department of National Defence reviews its weapons requirements on a continuing basis and disposes of any surpluses in an appropriate manner.
