The National Firearms Association (NFA; French: Association Nationale des Armes à Feu) is a Canadian non-profit association based in Edmonton. Its main goals are the repeal and replacement of the Firearms Act (Bill C-68), which was introduced into Canadian Parliament in 1995 (Now called "Chapter 39 of the 1995 Statutes of Canada"), the promotion of marksmanship and firearm safety and the protection of the right to hunt, and self-defence and property rights. The NFA is a registered United Nations non-governmental organization (NGO) with special consultative status to the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). It publishes Canadian Firearms Journal, ISSN 1702-1197. The NFA was faced with a hostile takeover attempt in 2015. Several lawsuits ensued, with the NFA's incumbent leadership succeeding in retaining power at their Annual General Meeting.
