Gun licence address

Post by Gun-nut » 27 Aug 2023, 3:43 pm

Hey everyone,

Renewed my gun licence the other day and noticed that they no longer state the licence holder’s address on the card. I’m assuming this is as a precaution in case someone drops their licence that LRD wouldn’t want people breaking into homes looking for firearms. is this a fairly new thing or did they just forget to print it on my card? :lol:

It happened a few years ago now, probably just after you received your old one.

Ah gotcha, sounds about right. Was worried for a bit I’d have to get a new one sent to me for a second there. :lol:
