Thread: Guns in Caravans

If can store firearms in a caravan, why not allow to store in a secured storage facility? There has electronic fence, 24x7 security measures and big locks. If police could allow this, it really help me a lot.

Well, I mean not just store it but can pass firearm officer inspection. I remember I have seen from somewhere not just for once, it said I can `t do that way.

You won't (or should not) get the OK to store ammo in a storage facility as it's a DG and you can't confirm over the course of the entire facility which customer areas have DG's for emergency reasons. Been some horrendous fires at storage facilities in the past where the pops and bangs have been a major concern (people chucking 9Kg gas bottles in their lockups).

Thanks, we have a responsibility to keep them safe, out of site etc but there is no specific definitions on a lockable box etc for transport. Nor should there be they can be posted or freighted dealer to dealer.

Could someone post a link to the firearms act or section please. It will make it hard for a visitor.
