    People hate spending cash and it has a rep for being hard to get. It shouldn't be, the police should want as many people as possible to get it, increased vetting and security. Their policy is really illogical.

    And they can record the details of the actual firearms on their 'database', which you would think was their whole motive anyway.

    E-cat:
    $200 fee for the endorsement
    Safe that meets the requirements (at least $1000 usually)
    2 referees, can't remember the exact requirements
    Interview
    Police want 'a legitimate reason' to want it. (It should be that they have to have a legitimate reason not to give you one)

    B endorsement:
    $200 endorsement fee
    Safe (can be cheaper than E cat cos it doesn't have to be so big, but can use E cat rifle safe for pistols as well)
    Member of pistol club for 6 months

    To keep B you need to attend 12 club events per year
