i think you could also apply for a firearms cert if you didnt have one
the closing date was september 24 th or there abouts
i agree its not been well advertised thats why i enquired around march this year and asked for the procedure on what to do.
mine are now listed on my certificate but i cannot ever shoot them and i think they are reclassed as sec 7.3
Thanks For that. I see it is in reference to the calibres that have been re-classified. I had the impression that the rules on Section 58 had changed which is why I queried it.
The pistols my friend had to apply for a variation for are not any of the restricted calibres so he should have been able to add them to his FAC and notify them.
