Acting as an intermediary and getting compensation could constitute an illegal brokerage transaction and you could be exposed to criminal prosecution.

Any person who witnessed an illegal brokerage act may contact the OACIQ Info Center at 450 462-9800 or 1 800 440-7170 or make a request for assistance.

Last October it was also agreed that a UN Group of government experts should be set up to consider action to prevent the illicit brokering of small arms and light weapons.
