Selling a non restricted question
How does one go about doing it safely......It would be shipped to Saskatchewan. It been years since I sold one......

This is from the government website......
You do not need to register non-restricted firearms. That means you can transfer a non-restricted firearm without contacting the Canadian Firearms Program (CFP). However, the transferor (seller, giver) must make sure that the transferee (buyer, recipient) has a valid PAL. Call the CFP at 1-800-731-4000 to confirm the validity of the transferee's licence before you transfer the firearm.
So in practical terms.... Grab the persons PAL number and current mailing address...... Call CFP and ask if the PAL is valid and delivery address matches PAL?
Is that it?

Yep,that's it. Easy peasy. It's even easier if you're selling face-to-face. All you need to see is a valid PAL. Record the number for future reference....if you want.

Has too much time on their hands
Get the buyer to email you a pic of their PAL. Confirm address and ship it to the same address. If they want it shipped elsewhere, that could be a problem

Rick, If they gave me the number in an email.... Then I would just need to verify the number and mailing address with CFP right?
I don't actually need to see a pic of their PAL correct

Never send anyone a pic of your pal. There name and pal number along with a call to the cfc to verify information is valid is all that’s needed.

Yes, just verify the number as valid with the CFC.. They will give you a reference number....I believe ..

With all the technology options available today, you could ask for a video chat to make sure the face of the person you are talking to matches the face on the Pal. Then call in their Pal number to the Firearms Centre. That way you don't need a photo of the Pal, but you can still do your due diligence.
