I was talking to my niece today, she's not a shooter but her boyfriend is and has a number of firearms.
She said the police were around to check him over again just recently and told them they no longer need to make a suitable time nor give any notice.
The officers inspecting just lobbed, said welcome to the new policy, open up.
This is NSW, anyone know if there has been a change from mutual convenience?
It seems I did have the bull by the balls here.
I think if it keeps happening I should maybe buy him dinner.
I actually got to speak to my niece's boyfriend in person today, and my niece had got it mixed up. But not the way I thought.
According to her boyfriend, the cops said it was the last time they would be doing the inspections as they were being discontinued as costing too much with no productivity outcomes.
I can't be bothered spending 3 weeks of my life waiting on hold to ask NSW FAR if this is the case, anyone heard this?
Sounds highly unlikely to me, but there's no reason for him to blow smoke up me.
I rang Tas police when I put my 3rd safe in and asked when they’d like to inspect it - they said similar. When we get time - or never. We know you have done first two correctly and we just don’t have time to come out - so the answer is “sporadic inspections” going forward...but they did say they will give plenty of notice and you can decline first offering, if it does not suit...
