Rifles
If you are counting on renting rifles, you should make enquires in advance. You should also make sure to get instructions as to how to use it as there are a number of types and models. If you are not familiar with weapons, make sure to get target practice.

You need to have a Norwegian Firearms Certificate, European Weapon Passport or other documentation proving that you are authorized or permitted to carry a firearm in your home country if you want to rent a weapon. Persons who do not have a firearm certificate, must apply to the Governor of Svalbard for the right to rent a firearm. In order to apply for a temporary permit from the Governor you need a certificate of conduct from your police office (not older than 6 month).
