Submission of documents to LRO

To obtain a license, you must submit an application to the internal affairs authorities at the place of residence.

The application is drawn up in the prescribed form, a package of documents is attached to it, consisting of:

• passport and its copy;
• two photo cards 3×4;

To speed up the process of collecting documents and ensure their correct execution, you can contact the services of a law firm. This option will save time and increase the chances of success, but will result in additional costs.

Passing a medical examination

A license to purchase weapons requires passing a medical examination and issuing a certificate in the form 046-1.

This commission includes an examination by the following specialists:

• ophthalmologist;
• psychiatrist;
• expert in narcology;
• therapist.

An ophthalmologist checks visual acuity, which should be at least 50%! in one eye and 20%! in the other. Situations are also allowed when one eye is completely blind. In this case, the visual acuity of a healthy eye should be at least 70%!

An examination by a psychiatrist is necessary in order to exclude the possibility of mental disorders.

The narcologist gives a conclusion that the patient does not have alcohol or drug addiction. Tests are also carried out to prove the absence of traces of prohibited substances in the body.

Among other things, an obstacle to obtaining the necessary certificate is the lack of a thumb or index finger, as well as other disorders of the motor function of the hands.

The certificate received will be valid for six months. During this time, you should have time to submit an application to the LRO, otherwise it will lose its validity and the medical examination will have to be repeated.

The necessary examinations can be done in a public medical institution or in a private clinic licensed to provide such services. In this case, all expenses will have to be paid from their own funds.

Checking the precinct

The owner of the weapon is obliged to store it in conditions that exclude access by unauthorized persons. To ensure security, a safe is used, which should be purchased and installed in advance.

After submitting the application, you must invite the local district police officer to your place so that he can make sure that the safe is available. Based on the results of the check, the police officer draws up a report attached to other documents.

In addition to a safe, there are other requirements that may apply to the residence of a person who wants to obtain a rifle license. They are not listed in the "Weapons Act", and their legitimacy is questionable. You can obey them, or try to appeal, but it will take a lot of time.

Examples of such requirements:

• connection of the apartment to the alarm system;
• installation of bars on windows;
• fixing the safe by screwing it to the floor or wall.

Also, the district police officer may point out the insufficient, in his opinion, reliability of the safe and demand to replace it, although the law does not specify anywhere what the degree of protection should be.

If the LRO approves the issuance of a license, then such visits by the district police officer will be repeated once a year, throughout the entire period of possession of weapons.

Passing an exam on knowledge of the conditions of storage, use and carrying of weapons

Citizens wishing to purchase weapons for the first time must complete a special training course. At the end of the course, an exam on knowledge of weapons legislation is taken.

Those who have previously issued a permit for the purchase of hunting weapons with a smooth barrel (and this also requires passing a similar course), re-training is not required. Enough to retake the exam. In the future, you will have to repeat this procedure every five years.

The current employees of law enforcement agencies are exempted from the need to comply with this requirement. Exemptions are also granted to former employees who have retired with the right to a pension. This category of citizens, in addition to other papers, must attach to the application documents confirming that they were or are in the relevant service.

In order to go through all the instances correctly and without problems, apply at least 3 months before the expiration of the medical certificate. Doctors who will deal with your case:

• Contact a psychiatrist for an examination. To schedule a medical examination, you need to contact the neuropsychiatric dispensary at the place of residence with a passport. Men need to have a military ID with them. The presence of prolonged or chronic mental disorders makes it impossible to obtain a permit to own a weapon.

If one eye does not see or its visual function is less than 20% functional, the other eye must see at least 70%, taking into account the correction (glasses).
• Surgeon.

• The metal plates from which the safe is made must have a thickness of at least 3 millimeters.

• Choose a room for the safe where outsiders will not have access. The best places are the pantry or bedroom.

The district police have a lot of work, so agree on the date of the examination in advance. Do not be rude and do not insist on your rights, otherwise the case may drag on even more.
