Thread: a cat endorsed onto your e cat

In fact it stated that a FAL holder is required to obtain those particular licence endorsements/catagories under the arms act to be able to hold 1 of those particular weapons.
The Judge's decision of that case has also brought up the issue of then each individual MSSA or pistol has to have a separate endorsement rather than 1 particular endorsement to cover all/any weapons classed as needing a particular licence endorsement.

And those licence endorsements were brought about in 1992 when the Arms Act was amended after the events at Aramoana. (paragraph 43)

What, I think, you have highlighted or brought to our attention is the defendants application(s) which was refused/denied by the Judge in his ruling.



There is obviously still a lot to do and sort out.

So rather than jumping to conclusions over this issue, I'll wait till the proper authorities inform us of the actual changes to the FAL regulations.

Sounds good... you do that.
