Here what my AI friend has to say:
Yes, you can own revolvers in Canada, but they are classified as restricted or prohibited firearms, depending on the barrel length and caliber. Canadian firearms laws are strict, and revolvers fall under specific categories in the Firearms Act.
Restricted Firearms: Most revolvers fall under this category. If the barrel length is longer than 4.1 inches (105 mm), the revolver is considered restricted. To own a restricted firearm, you need a Restricted Possession and Acquisition Licence (RPAL). You also need to register the firearm and follow strict storage and transportation regulations.
Prohibited Firearms: Revolvers with a barrel length of 4.1 inches (105 mm) or less, or certain calibers (e.g., .32 or .25), are considered prohibited. Generally, these firearms can only be owned by individuals who had them before the prohibition was enacted or have inherited them.
In short, while it is possible to own a revolver in Canada, it requires obtaining the appropriate licensing and adhering to the legal restrictions surrounding restricted and prohibited firearms.
edit: re: the transportation regulations. I've heard you can only take handguns/revolvers from your house to the range, and back. If you get caught with it otherwise in your vehicle, you're screwed.
