CZ Scorpion with the long barrel is non restricted but the short barrel is restricted. It's a mix of what they look like, and certain barrel lenghts, not 100% sure.
Also to get your licence you first have to do one full day course for each class. So like my restricted licences had to take 2 full day firearm safety courses mandated by Canada federally. Before being able to apply for your firearm acquisition and possession licence.

So, if vetted to own and operate a restricted firearm, can that person utilize the firearm to protect themselves (self defence) in the event of a break in whilst in their home?
What about non-restricted firearms? You noted that you cannot discharge them on your property. If licensed to own a restricted firearm, can you utilize it for self defence within your home?
