With your model 4 (one per firearm) you are allowed to shoot in a loget. You may NOT put your weapon in a holster on your belt. Only static shooting. You can find the model 4 applications on the province's website. You can already download them below. With this application, you must always enclose a medical certificate and a pass certificate for the theoretical test and the practical test. You take the theoretical test at your local police station. The questions you need to know for this can be found here --->

The sport shooter's licence (SSL)
