FIREARM & WEAPON OFFENCES


Winnipeg Firearms & Weapons Lawyer

Firearms offences are serious and if you have been charged with a firearm related offence, it is best to seek the guidance of an experienced lawyer.

Understanding Firearms and Weapons Charges

Firearms and weapons charges encompass allegations related to the possession, use, or trafficking of firearms, prohibited weapons, or other dangerous instruments. These charges carry serious legal consequences, including significant fines, imprisonment, and potential forfeiture of firearms licenses.

These criminal law offences relate to both weapons (such as brass knuckles or illegal knives – such as a switchblade), and firearms / guns.

If a loaded firearm is used during the commission of an offence (such as a robbery), there can be mandatory minimum jail sentences that accompany a finding of guilt. Although there are defences to such offences, one must be diligent to ensure that he is in possession of, where appropriate, the proper license(s) that correspond(s) to any weapon or firearm.
