    No it didn't, but this was never a legal requirement.

    Also, went and got a mail order form signed today for some ammo, the form has now changed, I won't go over all the changes but the most odd part about it is they ask you what type of firearm you will be using the ammo in.... What the fuck....

    Haven't seen anyone talk about this here yet, might have missed it, but now the police officer before they sign your form look your name up in their system to assure you're still fit to hold a FAL.
    As if I had somehow not had my licence taken off me after being convicted of a crime where I should have lost it, I'd go and try get a mail order form? That'll catch lots of people out, not.
    Then after this cops check the officer told me he now sends it to the firearms head office for more checks.

    They really went a mile with this without any legislation change didn't they?

    I'd tell them through my gun....
    If they then ask what gun I would say the one I use with this ammo..
    If they still ask I'd then ask them to show me the legislation that states where I need to name this firearm.
    If they can then point that out I'd then tell em..

    Pretty much, go order some rounds and tell me how that goes.

    On second thought in the legislation it says the POL whatever form needs to be filled out. They've just changed the form....

    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
