Procedure and methods of license renewal

A license to carry, store and use a traumatic weapon is issued for a five-year period.

In the opinion of my friends who have such a license, it is better to take care of its renewal in advance, about 3 months before the expiration date. This is due to the fact that obtaining the necessary documentation is a long process and not everyone has time to meet the deadlines.

For renewal of the permit, the same documents are provided as for the initial receipt. In addition, a license renewal application is being written.

Such a statement contains the following information:

  • Name territorial body to which it is served;
  • Full name of the applicant;
  • residence address;
  • passport data (series, number, date of issue and name of the body);
  • expiration date of the license;
  • series, number and date of issue of the previous permit;
  • weapon model, type and caliber, as well as the number of cartridges;
  • if the person has other permits related to the storage of weapons, this information is also indicated;
  • date of application submission;
  • applicant's signature.

In the application for the renewal of a firearm permit, information is entered on the model, type and caliber of the weapon, as well as the number of cartridges

There are two ways to apply for a license renewal:

  • through a personal visit to the licensing and permitting department;
  • through the Gosuslug portal (gosuslugi.ru).

Employees of the licensing and permitting division of the internal affairs bodies responsible for renewing the license will send the citizen to the training center to pass the screening test. Renewal of the license for civilian weapon does not require repeated training.

Even if the license has been renewed, it can be canceled under the following circumstances:

  • the citizen was found guilty of an intentional crime and he was sent to serve his sentence in places of detention;
  • the license holder has died;
  • the citizen sent a voluntary waiver of the license;
  • the citizen was deprived special law based on a court decision.

If the license was canceled, the citizen has the right to apply for a permit again after 1 year from the end of the period of the administrative penalty. If the owner voluntarily refused the permission, he can contact the licensing and permitting department at any time convenient for him, providing the documents requested in this case.

What threatens the use of traumatic weapons with an expired license

The purchase, storage, carrying and use of traumatic weapons without special permission is prohibited by law. For non-observance of such a law, a citizen is held criminally liable. It happens that the owner of the trauma, for objective reasons or due to forgetfulness, failed to renew the license in time. This situation has different individual characteristics for each case.

The legislation provides for the following measures of influence:

  • a warning from a law enforcement officer;
  • an administrative fine for an expired traumatic weapon license;
  • confiscation of weapons;
  • criminal liability for the use of unregistered weapons (imprisonment for a term of 3-4 years).

In most cases, a fine is imposed from 1 to 3 thousand rubles. If the storage of a traumatic weapon without a license was carried out by a whole group of persons, the criminal liability is tougher: imprisonment for up to 6 years and a fine of up to 100 thousand rubles. Also, at the legislative level, punishment is provided for organized groups that are engaged in illegal storage and sale of traumatic weapons - imprisonment for up to 8 years and a fine of up to 200 thousand rubles.
