    Just took me four months to get B and E endorsement.
    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

    With the wait that can happen with the police, it's a shame if the clubs hold things up as well.

    If you put in the details for PNZ to forward to the police then yes, you could be waiting on the police. I would expect your club to tick the boxes at their first committee meeting from when you gave it to them so follow up with them if you think it got missed.

    Mine got missed at the club for three months, luckily to make up the police did their part in three weeks from when I handed the forms to them to when my card arrived.

    Did my first mini-match IPSC shoot after getting my holster qual, this morning. Surprised myself and got 4th overall in production. Had my first 3 misses as well.

    Would have been there to beat you, but back is a bit fucked. Well done.

    It's a fun game to play!
