There are over 20,000 firearms related laws on the books from local to national level.

Added: To addrss the question - - the firearms laws in the US are complex and every state and jurisdiction (including the federal government) exercises some kind of regulation over their ownership, possession, and sale. A more specific answer cannot be given due to the complexity and exactness of the many laws.

Canada's laws are typically much more restrictive. They require licencing for firearms purchasing, with different classes of licence being required for different classes of firearms. Many firearms which are legal in the US are either restricted or outright banned in Canada. Magazine in capacity in Canada is five rounds.

There are some laws in the US which aren't present in Canada, however - the US ban on Russian and Chinese firearms is nonexistent in Canada, and Canada doesn' t have 922r parts count laws, allowing for ownership of some firearms not available in the US.

I reside in Canada and own a registered 1943 Walther P-38 pistol with an 8 round magazine. It is restricted but not prohibited.
