Thread: Hunting With No FAL

I don't entirely agree, only thing it comes down to is responsibility.
As the licence holder you are the one responsible for an unlicensed user. If there is an incident, whether involving a 3rd party or not, you are the one that is culpable and liable.
I agree that some discretion comes into it, obviously the manor/level in which a mature knowledgable and experienced 15 year old is mentored will be different to say supervising my own 7 year old lad.
But either way, the buck stops with the licence holder.

Sorry to be blunt Dundee but its your licence are you prepared to loose it if shit goes bad ? There was a article a while in the NZ Outdoors magazine about direct supervision and it certainly gave me a wake up call. Your call. Judging by the posts on here id P.T is more than competent in handling firearms but....is it worth from a legal point of view?
