(Exemption permit required)

A permit may be issued for prohibited weapons, but only in exceptional circumstances. Exceptions may, for example, be made for target shooters, collectors and museums.
If you wish to purchase and possess a prohibited weapon, you will need a special permit from the cantonal weapons office at your place of residence.
