IIRC this was agreed to in '96. Some things take time I guess.

Yes, just perhaps "for the purpose of consistency" inorder to implement the NFR we need to reduce firearm ownership to 5 per licence in all states.

Yeap I have 1 Martini still listed as mine even thou it sold 15 yrs ago, had a safe inspection 2 months ago and yesterday I had the local Plod ring and say they would follow up after asking for all details of the transfer. Unfortunately the dealer went to goal for poor record keeping 9 yrs ago and is bound to be unhelpful.
I have been asked to attend shortly to sign a stat dec, waste of time with the Police running the show

Yes, your probably correct. However the states can "sign over" their responsibilities to the federal government.
In this case they are probably just agreeing to provide the data to the federal government and changing the structure of the dbase.
