Need for the Document [edit]
A firearms license (also known as a gun license) is a license or permit issued by some governments (typically by the police) of a country (or state or municipality thereof), that allows the licensee to buy, own, possess, and use firearms, often subject to a number of conditions or restrictions, especially with regards to storage requirements or the completion of a firearms safety course, as well as background checks, etc. The following are the procedures for applying for Gun or Firearms License in Nigeria.

In Nigeria,ammunition" means ammunition for any firearm and any component part of any such ammunition, but does not include gun powder or trade powder not intended or used as such a component part; private gun licenses are issued primarily for sporting.

Shooting as a sport has two distinct forms: target-shooting on a range, and shooting to kill a game, sometimes called gaming. Other purposes could include the use of firearms for traditional festivities and celebrations, and in such instances, blank cartridges are used. *Self- defense is never a reason for applying for a private gun license.*

The primary objective of gun control is to reduce the criminal use of guns as much as possible without interfering with legal gun use. This is the intendment of the Firearms Act, Cap F28, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.

Gun control laws prohibit perennial alcoholics, drug addicts, mentally unbalanced persons or persons with criminal records from owning guns or obtaining a gun license.

Private gun license is also limited to shotguns, as revolvers and pistols are only issued to the police and armed forces personnel.

Common gaming guns are:

(i) The double barrel gun: these are shotguns with two barrels capable of being fired in quick succession.

(ii) The single barrel gun: It sometimes has double rounds.

Do you want to obtain a gun license?

(b)in respect of any premises which do not comply with the requirements prescribed by regulations made under section 33 of this Act.

The President may without being bound to assign any reason therefor direct that registration in accordance with fir arm Act section shall not take place in respect of any person or persons, or in respect of any pl
