Thread: ReLicensing question - Section L

I made it very clear to the vettor that my family have the same access to my safe as the vetter does to his bosses wife snatch.
He knows exactly where it is but doesn't have access or permission to get into it.

Also they wanted my son had to have a separate safe for his FAL with no access to mine, and vise versa for me.

That sounds more like a want rather than a need
As long as both have the same license there shouldn't be an issue, same as me storing rifles for a mate.

My brother has a spare key for my safe and I know the combo for his, just in cast of emergency.

They made a fuss about it and I wasn't in a position to challenge. Keep them happy.
Plus it meant more room for "all sorts of items"

Weird, my wife used my safe for her FAL.
She didn't know where the key was or have access until she received her FAL

Hell yeah. No way do you want the wife knowing what's in there.

So hold on, do we need to see vetters FALs before we give them information about our storage?

That would probably fall under the same rules as the Military and Police where no license required for firearms stuff while on duty.

All of this stuff is VERY similar to what I see on the UK deerstalking and firearms sites - and very little of it is good. Stand by for ammo restrictions, licenses to reload ammo, pressure testing (for your safety) reloaded ammo, proof testing rebarreled rifles, all sorts of bullshit yet to be dreamed up by some polyester short wearing pencil necked wanker in Wellington..

I'll be very happy to find out in 20 years that I was just chicken little and worrying about nothing, but I don't think that will be the case.

I keep safes Keyes in another safe with a combo lock due to worrying that a burglar could find Keyes when away for extended times, got the spare key to the combo safe screwed onto a roof rafter in a very hard to reach spot.

An 18V cordless grinder with cutting wheel will make short work of many gun safes possibly without disturbing the neighbours.

Correct: Hiding them is a much better option, the safe is there to keep the Vettor happy. If they can't be seen/found the can't be stolen. A safe in and of itself is an invitation. Originally the safe was to prevent children gaining access in Firearms Safety Legislation, it is Police narrative that has changed.

My understanding is that the licience holder should have access ( ie keys ) to the safe hidden/unknown from any other unlicensed holder living in or has access to the house. That is"reasonable" in my opinion.
