    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    If everyone left wherever they have been, carrying one more piece of litter than they started with, then we would live in a truly tidy place.

    And smashed bottles - particularly in parks etc where kids and dogs run around.

    That kind shouldn’t be granted a FAL for a long time - like when they’re mature. ( for some it would be when they get to 60 - and I’m being charitable here)

    Greetings All,
    Years ago I was the Range Officer at our local NZDA shoots. I spotted that some were having a quiet beverage with their lunch. I raised this at our next Committee Meeting and said that there should be no booze on the range and that anyone I saw drinking would not be shooting. This raised a bit of a ruckus one clot said something along the lines of "A bloke is entitled to his lunch". I never had to mention it again though.
    Regards Grandpamac.

    The sad thing is you had to bring it up at all.

    Whoever told you this, I would take their story's with a large grain of salt, a very large grain.

    I don't want to come across as too rude. However, I know that if you have a bad enough domestic that you and your partner are forced to have time apart at the direction of the Police, you will most likely have your firearms taken off during this period and likely have you're FAL reconsidered. This has been around for a long time and is nothing new and should not be a surprise. They may enforce this a little more often with more focus on firearm laws and how it is policed.

    I agree re the domestics, as you said though that's not some under the radar operation, It's fair play and common sense. If you're having an argument so bad you need to be lawfully separated you maybe shouldn't have a FAL in all honesty. Outside of that I think it's a very large jump to think police are just waiting for your wife to raise her voice to swoop in and take your FAL, the speeding stuff is also subjective are these people doing 120 past a 40 school or 55 in a 50? I do 55 in a 50 and I'll get a chat about my FAL? I doubt it. On top of all this there would have to be some form of competency within the police that I would argue based on previous events just doesn't exist.

    A mate of mine told me that he was recently advised by a local cop to work on keeping his record clean for the next 7 years if he wants to get his current FAL license renewed once it runs out, as he has had a couple driving offenses over the last 3 years since his current was issued...
    Pretty much echoed what @Bos has said above

    Fellas, up to you how to approach this... all good... you can choose whether or not you engage on this topic with a new member with 1 post... on this thread. Past events would suggest that the trolls are lurking, biding their time waiting to come stir things up.

    With the modern world, no consequences, very few boundaries what else is expected when the age arrives for a FAL or drivers license, got to be a great failure rate. There's probably a few of us oldies who slipped threw the net but most new the consequences from our actions though.

    I don't really have an issue with the domestics thing , as the new guy said if the police get involved then you kinda got to expect repercussions . And this country does have a pretty bad track record of home violence....
    Not sure about the new idea of having a disgruntled ex being able to effect your licensing though . That could open up doors for retaliation by the ex purely out of spite .
    And a guy I know was pulled for speeding 5km over the limit and he said the first thing the cop pointed out was the fact he was an LFO which we both found a bit baffling , what has that got to do with a minor speeding charge ....
