    Default S21 - Permit Number vs License Number

    So, finally having got my actual permit, I went off to collect my FA from the gun shop. It was a very rare sight for the guy helping me behind the counter. He was happy to accept it except for the part where he needs to fill in the register and it requires a license number. Scanning over the S21 permit, there does not appear to be a permit number or a number of any kind on the permit - maybe it was missed at the cut off between the pages. The permit has 4 pages and contains all the details of the FA itself, the seller and my details, finally its stamped and signed on the last page. At the footer of each page is the intra or internet address of the page where it is accessed and imbedded in this address is a number starting with a 'T' followed by a series of numbers, could this be the permit number?

    On a similar issue, when purchasing ammunition for the FA on the S21, a license number is required on the register - what get filled in for this? Has anyone had issues purchasing ammo from dealers on a S21 or are they accepted without question?

    Your permit number will be the T followed by 7 numbers.
    It could have been found on the acknowledgement of receipt you got from your DFO when handing in your app. It is that same number you see in the URL at the bottom of the permit. It does not appear on the actual permit pages.

    Never had an issue with buying anything on a permit.

    Sure, no problem.
    You might want to update your S21 Permit Collection thread your started with details on how you came right with your permit, to close out the thread with a solution for others searching the forums in future and as a courtesy to those who offered you advice or assistance in that thread.
