    but isn't some one supposed to know how to access your firearms in case something happens to you? ie an accident where you become physically or mentally incapacitated or death
    and carry out as your will follows in regards to disposal of said firearms

    Had my 10-year licence renewal interview & security inspection last week. The (civilian) vetting contractor asked me this question, stating this isn't a legal requirement but Police would like firearm owners to consider making arrangements, just in case you fall off a bluff or lose your marbles.

    My wife is about to apply for her license for this very reason. If something happens to me, then they can stay right where they are under her onwership / possession until she feels the need to deal with them. And she will probably have enough on her plat e at the time that she can just leave them there and forget about them for a while.....
