    Once your FAL has been taken off you, I'm pretty sure you aren't allowed to handle firearms even under supervision

    Begs the following question
    If you did not know that someone had lost their FAL, and took them out under supervision, is ignorance a defence or are you in the brown stuff?
    Point being that unless it is a high profile person like in this case, it is unlikely to be public knowledge.

    The cops gave, or had to give, that guy Jenner from Hamilton his licence back and had to pay $10 000 costs.

    And he pleaded guilty selling guns to a gang member.

    Why shouldn't someone who only lent one gun to a mate not get his back? It's up to the judge to decide. Not internet experts on here.
    That's why we have judges to decide, not angry keyboard commandos.

    You'll be quoted again when people complain about judge's decisions and how wrong they are

    Me thinks that many judges would do good to heed some direction from "keyboard commando's", as at the end of the day it is us that get restricted by the action of the "others", more than the "others."

    The sentence for firearms offences should be taken out of the courts hands, if found guilty the sentence should be mandatory not up to some pussy judge there are to many judges handing out soft sentences
    that have no deterrent effect on the offenders like the twat we are talking about.

    Have you been taking silly question hormones again Pengy?
    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

    In a former life I was in the process of having my FAL revoked and there was able accompanying note spelling out that once revoked, I would not be able to handle firearms at all....
    Thankfully the judge had some common sense and the police could not proceed with it...

    Police did themselves no favours in their handling of Dale's case.
