    Don't worry Rushy you'd be unlucky to get a crim like Heather buying off you! I'll have to get another email and shipping address and give them an alias, might need a nick name on my licence! really serious for E cat, B and C licence holders, stupid stupid

    Many ppl accept sighting of a licence, the difference is what to "knowing" your email and address? Bear in mind the form should be legitimate and safe as it has been verified, also if something happens there is a point of investigation to follow. Alternatively, how hard is it to sit outside guncity and follow you home? or a shooting range? take a picture of your number plate and get the address that way? Both would be harder to trace.

    It seems to be the right thing from what I can see. It ensures the verification of the buyer is solid and can't be forged

    why go thru that hassle when you can get your cuzzie who works in the civilian cop ranks to give you collectors details and pinch the whole lot.

    It's amazing how fast the police dropped the "original form must be posted - no scanned or e-mail copies" policy on the transfer form when it suddenly became them who would have to pay for the stamp.

    I sold a rifle a few weeks back and the buyer asked for all my details, so I gave him them (all false except name) and I got an email back saying for some reasons my details didn't match up at the cop shop. I called him and said I wasn't surprised as they were false, explained I don't give my details out for security reasons. Told him to call me when he was at the cop shop and I'll speak to who ever he was dealing with. So I got the ph call a day later and the Sargeant came on the ph. I told the Sargeant I wasn't trying to be difficult but I wasn't going to hand all my details to some random person I didn't know. He didn't care, and wanted them, so I politely said it wasn't happening, and that all I wanted to know was that this rooster held a current FAL, and as a seller thats all I need to know. He wasn't a happy chappy, but I couldn't give a fuck, policeman or not, a buyer doesn't need to know my shit!

    How did you know that it was the police you were talking to? Would of been better for the seller to phone you that he was at such and such police station and then you could've looked the phone number up and called the station yourself.

    Could have been Tom, Dickinson or Harry, but seeing as he had been to the cop shop in the first instance and finding out my details were false (only the police would know) I would imagine he's got no reason not to go back, and more importantly, I didn't send the rifle till I had the appropriate paperwork.

    The system works as it is as long as your a responsible seller. No need to try and complicate a simple process is there?

    Breathe Maca, breathe. Rest in the knowledge that when anarchy descends, we that have access to our firearms will be the ones that will save the nation from all of the insurrection and rebellion.
    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

    You're not wrong. 100 to 1 young Heather won't be charged and will probably feature in the next issue of Woman's Day as the country's new heroine.

    There is a thing called Woman's Day? How long have you been in Tokoroa? I lived there in my youth.
