    Change of Address

    Finally managed to find a house that we could afford to put a deposit down on and move in on 12th Decmeber

    Do I need to go visit my AO or can the address change be done online.

    Will the AO come round and make a new check on the security?

    7. Avoid alcohol or drugs when handling firearms

    Good judgement is the key to safe use of firearms.

    Staying in Taradice?
    Expect a visit from the police to do a security check. I think you ca do change of addy online.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Congrats on purchase

    Drop in and there is a 30sec form to fill out and leave there.
    Dont have to see ao its at the front counter.
    They send a general duties officer around to cheek what security arrangement you have.

    Thats how it works in the mighty palmy, wouldn't think it was much different.

    Good on ya KK

    Last time I changed address the Licencing inspector came round and did a security check, took down the serial numbers of all my B, C & E cat firearms.

    That was 6 years after I notified the AO of my change of address via the form at the police office.

    Cheers
    Pete

    Hmmm this sounds similar to my experience. Filled in form and posted away.

    Then went to renew my licence, to find out that my details had not been updated!
    I was stunned to say the least

    I have done it on line and then it took about six weeks for the inspection to occur.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    The speed at which Auckland moves is far faster than the rest of us by the looks

    "Will the AO come round and make a new check on the security? "

    Well when I said to him I wanted to get a bigger safe (hahahahaha, what a surprise) he said he wanted to come and see it was installed OK.

    So I suggest you ask, I like keeping on the AO's good side, I mean its no biggee.
